Wine compatibility layer ported to OpenBSD

Original: Wine ported to OpenBSD

Wine, the open-source compatibility layer that lets software written for Windows run on Unix-like systems, has been ported to OpenBSD, according to a mailing-list message for the project's ports tree. The news is drawing attention among developers, since it could open the door to running Windows applications on the security-focused operating system, though questions remain about performance and how much work is still needed before it is usable.

Why now: A significant new port bringing Windows app compatibility to a security-focused OS is notable news for the open-source community.
