More Light Shed on Project David

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the whats-going-on-here dept.

Sun writes "Flexbeta.net received from Specops Labs screenshots "proving" that project David (previously covered here) is a real thing. The demo.... Office 2000 install. This is something both Wine and CrossOver Office know how to do for quite some time. In a discussion on wine-devel some people noticed evidence inside the screenshots that project David is a CrossOver Office ripoff."

    Thing is, shots such as these can be faked in a number of ways.. there was nobody there actually watching this and no real-time video. I am not very impressed. Even if it is real it will not be open source so nobody will use it anyway. :)

    The screenshots indicate it is just another MS look and feel "insipired" open-source project..

    *sigh
