  • CodeWeavers is a company that sells a proprietary version of Wine called CrossOver, for running Windows applications on Mac OS X and Linux. The company was founded in 1996 as a consultancy, eventually moving entirely over to Wine development and support. The CrossOver version of Wine is regularly refreshed with the latest free Wine patches; likewise, patches from the company's employees are sent back to the project almost immediately. This distinguishes the company from TransGaming, which develops a forked version of Wine called Cedega, and no longer returns contributions to free Wine. CodeWeavers is a major contributor to the Wine project, a free software / open-source software project that helps Windows applications run on different x86-based operating systems, and employs the project's maintainer, Alexandre Julliard, as their CTO. The Company's products include CrossOver Pro Linux, CrossOver Pro Mac, CrossOver Games for Linux, and CrossOver Games for Mac. CrossOver Server was discontinued in 2007 as CrossOver Pro replaced its functionality. The company's products have traditionally focused on making Microsoft software staples like Microsoft Office, MS Word, and MS Excel run on Linux. With the addition of CrossOver Pro Mac the company has also begun focusing on games and other applications not available natively on the Mac platform, such as MS Visio and MS Project. CrossOver Games was introduced in March 2008 and is intended to allow gaming-related patches from Wine to be incorporated into CrossOver much faster. The CrossOver Pro product line will focus on stability and in-depth testing with supported productivity software, such as Microsoft Office, and will have a slower release cycle. CodeWeavers also provides implementation and consulting services around Wine and other open-source software projects. Google has paid CodeWeavers to improve support for Adobe Photoshop and add functionality to Wine. CodeWeavers is also a founding member of the Desktop Linux Consortium.
  • CodeWeavers es una compañía desarrolladora de una versión modificada de wine llamada CrossOver, para ejecutar aplicaciones de Windows en Mac OS X, GNU/Linux y Solaris. La compañía fue fundada en 1996 como una consultoría, eventualmente desplazada por completo al Wine Development and Support. CrossOver es regularmente actualizado con los últimos parches libres de wine; asimismo, los parches hechos por los empleados de la compañía son enviados al proyecto original de manera inmediata. Esto diferencia a la compañía de TransGaming, que distribuye una versión derivada de Wine llamada Cedega, y no regresa las contribuciones libremente a Wine. CodeWeavers es el mayor contribuidor del proyecto Wine, un proyecto de software libre que ayuda a que las aplicaciones de Windows se ejecuten en diferentes sistemas operativos bajo la arquitectura x86, y emplea al mantenedor del proyecto, Alexandre Julliard, como su CTO.
