[Wine] CodeWeavers released CrossOver Games today!

[DARKGuy .]

Yeah, Transgaming might have stopped sending patches to WINE, however,
there is stuff that they've made that just works that WINE hasn't
added yet either for one or other policy, I'm not a developer to say
why. All I know is that Need for Speed: Most Wanted shows textures in
Cedega while WINE doesn't, yet.

However, WINE totally rocks for playing WoW ^^;.
