Hello.
q4wine project was started about 8 years ago. It still continue to evolve from an simple 7-lines 'Hello World' application written just for fun in late 2008 :)
It was a long run. I am really impressed with OpenSource development model. Unfortunately, q4wine has a lot of design issues and limitations. It is really hard to support and add new features. To get rid of this, I am planning to rewrite it completely from scratch.
I do have some new ideas to try, but it will be nice to hear ideas, suggestions or comments from the end users.
So it's my call to you: if you have something to say I'm ready to listen.
