<intro> <p>This is the 336 issue of the Wine Weekly News publication.
-Its main goal is to highlight how well wine works. It also serves to inform you of what's going on around Wine. Wine is an open source implementation of the Windows API on top of X and Unix. Think of it as a Windows compatibility layer. Wine does not require Microsoft Windows, as it is a completely alternative implementation consisting of 100% Microsoft-free code, but it can optionally use native system DLLs if they are available.

-Google has released a beta preview of Picasa 2.7 for Linux adding web album integration, more editing features and better RAW support. The new beta still isn't a native app (much of its code comes from the Windows version and runs via the included Wine components), but it does run considerably faster and the web album features will be welcome news for Picasa Web users.

-[...] Picasa's RAW support "just works" much better than any of the other options I've tried, and it remains (even as a beta) quite snappy and stable.</p>

-As more musicians migrate from Windows to Linux we can expect greater demand for those users' Olde Favorites to run under Linux, either natively or in some other environment (emulation, virtualization). Though that migration is now only a mere trickle, it's been growing and will continue to grow.

-(Thanks Dan Kegel for the link). The beloved leader of WINE, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandre_Julliard">Alexandre Julliard</a>, was recently spotted in a <a href="http://www.lugradio.org/episodes/90">radio interview</a> with <a href="http://www.lugradio.org/">LugRadio</a>. Its a 9 minute interview (starting from 2:02) which is fairly entertaining. I'll be reading AJ's postes from now on with his accent in my head! He talks a bit about Wine 1.0 (1 dot 0 as AJ says it), the state of WINE and its progress towards supporting new applications like Office 12 etc. He also talks, in a very comical portion of the interview, about the quality of the Windows API:
