Very good point. This is another angle I wanted to approach: we are currently perceived by some as a 'evil thing' which allows MS-stuff to creep into Linux. We should make it clear that Wine is: 1) a PE loader This is good! PE is a valid format, just like ELF. There are advantages to have it supported in Linux. 2) A (large) toolkit/lib/etc. There, we are in the same bucket as Lesstif, Qt, GTK, etc. We are a Unix thing as much as all the other cherished libs. -- Dimi.
