The Wine project has won an award from the SourceForge 2008 Community Choice Awards.

We won the category:
"Most Likely to Be Ambiguously and Baselessly Accused of Patent Violation".

We would like to thank to the voters of SourceForge community for this fantastic award.

One of the most puzzling and poorly understood phenomena in the Wine community is how Alexandre Julliard's machine has been the only one to pass Wine's test suite for years.

While we are no closer to understanding the source of the problem we have identified another machine to pass the suite without any errors! The magical machine that passed (the first non-red, orange, header on test.winehq.org!) is run by Alasdair Sinclair.
