            Bug ID: 52054
           Summary: Containerized access to Wine for running Windows apps
                    in containers under Linux.
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: jhanley at DGtlRift.com
      Distribution: ---

Currently, containers need to run under the same OS for the apps targeted - ie
containerizing Linux apps requires that the host OS be Linux and containerizing
Windows apps requires that host OS be Windows. However, with Windows Subsystem
for Linux, containerized Linux apps can now run under Windows incentivizing
Windows over Linux for cloud providers. 

Using wine to interconnect the host Linux system to the container orchestration
would allow containerized Windows apps to run under Linux for cloud deployment.
