Unless you want to undertake all that work, and the integration pieces necessary to make it all fit together nicely, this is basically a dead end for any near-term development. Darwine was a decent stab at this but it's dead for a reason. Cost/benefit is something you need to consider in any open source project. The benefit, in terms of usefulness and performance, is basically not there while the cost, in terms of time, is exorbitant. -r
Just a short thank you for taking the time to state this. Darwine died
because Apple switched from the PowerPC to Intel platform and the need
to integrate qemu and Wine was not there anymore. No or very little ROI
on just the time it would take to build/test/fix. Several people have
tried to breathe life back into the project only to realize why it was
abandoned in the first place.
Respectfully submitted.
