The Bordeaux Group announces the release of Bordeaux for Linux 1.2 with support for Microsoft Office 2007. Other major improvements over Bordeaux 1.0 and WINE 1.0
Greenville, SC (July 4th, 2008) Bordeaux Group, Inc., a leading Free Software developer, today unveiled Bordeaux for Linux 1.2, the next version of the company's software enabling Linux users to run Windows applications such as Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop and others.

Hey everyone,
It's been a busy week for us here at Wine Reviews despite the lack of juicy reviews you drool for. Don't worry soon we'll be back to our regular review writing, but in the interim we are trying to fix bugs we've had for a little while and clean up some stuff.
A lot of new things are coming as well... Stay tuned we won't be too long or at least I think.
Sincerely,
Nick

Hello Everyone,
Here is the results of our June 2008 poll, we had a total of 541 votes on this poll. I'll put my money on wine 2.0 being released in one to five years. We should have our July poll up in the next couple days, so if you have a suggestion for a future poll please send it our way.
Wine 2.0 will be released?

I just noticed the folks over at CodeWeavers are having a get the word out campaign. If your a proud customer of theirs and would like to help them spread the word about the great products that they have, this would be a good time to do it. Ive personally used their products ever since CrossOver Plugin 1.0 first shipped and have always been satisfied with the product and support that I've received over the years.
Here's a quote and a link to the original post at their site.
Friends of CodeWeavers, unite! First of all, thank you very much for your support. We greatly appreciate everyone who has purchased a copy of CrossOver, or has worked hard as an Advocate to ensure that CrossOver continues to improve and run the apps that you need. Beyond that, though, we also really value those of you who help spread the word about CrossOver. Your favorable comments, both in person and on the Web, are absolutely some of the most powerful things you can do for us. Here are four ways that you can help us us build even more buzz:

Instead of having to compile or run a script to set Wine or Darwine up fully (fonts stuff mostly), I've packaged everything into a .pkg that installs the latest version of Darwine, FontForge, FreeType, and symlinks fonts from /Library/Fonts to the proper directory for Darwine to use. Enjoy!
These builds are and will always be Intel only. Wine, and by extension, these builds of Darwine do not emulate anything. It is an API layer. For it to run on PPC, it would need to emulate some x86 stuff. This is what Darwine originally attempted to do in combination with QEMU, however it is no longer necessary with the switch to Intel.

Hello everybody,
This minor version only brings IRC related improvements.
What's new:
The integrated IRC client was improved, notably to ease the discussions via private message, as you can see HERE and HERE. (Actually, this improvement was introduced in the 3.0.5 version but 3.0.7 one was released only few days later)
Due to some issues with the PlayOnLinux's IRC server, the integrated IRC client now connects you directly at irc.freenode.com, on the #playonlinux channel other new thing, independent from the POL's version: there is one channel per language. So you can now join one of the following channels, depending on the language you want to speak:

Hello everybody,
First of all, I want to apologize for this version's delay (note from the translator: I want to apologize too for the translation's delay). Indeed, a version was planned sooner but I did prefer to do everything in the same time in order to propose a satisfying version before the 1.0 version (which shouldn't be released before several months because of the holidays and the improvement's difficulty).
So to being forgiven, I propose you a version of POLSC which is, in my opinion, practical and has powerful features.
This 0.4 version brings numerous new things:
- A script creation assistant able to create every script type very easily (Script that need a download or a CD-ROM for example). It is more beautiful, practical and has an help for each thing asked to the user.
