This is the 419th issue of the World Wine News publication. Its main goal is 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.


Wine 7.9

PE conversion marches onward — preliminary work started for the macOS driver.
