Wine is een opensource-implementatie van de Windows-api. Dit maakt het mogelijk om DOS- en Windows-programma's op onder andere Linux, FreeBSD en Solaris te draaien. Een grote groep ontwikkelaars draagt bij aan Wine en er is voor gekozen om elke twee weken een nieuwe zogeheten ontwikkelversie uit te brengen, in plaats van te wachten tot er een aantal nieuwe functies klaar is. Een paar keer per jaar concentreren de ontwikkelaars zich op het gladstrijken van de plooien en komt er een stabiele uitgave. De bedoeling is dat versie 1.4 binnenkort zal verschijnen en daarvan is nu de vierde release candidate beschikbaar gekomen.
