Wine is still under active development. Not every program works yet, however there are already several million people using Wine to run their software.

Wine will always be free software. Approximately half of Wine’s source code is written by volunteers. The rest is sponsored by commercial interests, especially Codeweavers who sell a supported version of Wine.

Wine is heavily reliant on its user community. User tests fill our Application Database to track how well programs work, and all the answers in the forums come from volunteers.
