            Bug ID: 47540
           Summary: Official Windows Build
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org

      Distribution: ---

I think WINE could really benefit from doing an Official Windows Version.

In many cases, WINE delivers a superior experience to that of Windows in
running Legacy Apps, for example older versions of StarCraft on Windows have
color problems and don't play right. On WINE this is not a problem.

>From a technical perspective, WINE could have a Official WSL2 installer or this
could be achieved in various ways.

>From a financial perspective, I think consumers and businesses would be
interested even in purchasing a official CrossOver version in cases where their
business software doesn't function right on Windows natively.

>From a developer perspective, Xenia is a Xbox Emulator built on Windows and
integrating directly with Direct X. I think such a version could easily attract
Windows  developer talent to improve WINE and also could provide benefits
developing and debugging WINE on a Windows OS.
