Wine Continues To Move Towards License Change

Posted by Hemos on from the moving-slowly-and-carefully dept.

uhmmmm writes "The Wine developer's votes are in. Wine will change license, as was suggested would happen, but it's not yet decided to what exactly. Alexandre notes 'We now have to decide the implementation details, like the exact license used, whether to require copyright assignments, etc.'"

  1. Lindows? by modipodio · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I can not see what makes lindows special , I read the review of it on newsforge and it sounded crap.
    wtf does lindows really offer that wine does not ? Lindows looks to me just like a repackaged version of wine with a catchy name and some superficial features. can any one explain to me what makes it a unique product worth
    buying ? The review on newsforge just seemed to show how little it ran and I felt that the review went extremly light on them,I can understand the version they had was a test but still what is the point of sending something which is essentially not very usefull or different to wine running on some other linux varient at this stage of development for review ?
