Bordeaux 1.6 beta 1 for FreeBSD and PC-BSD
Over the past month we have made some major progress on the BSD port of Bordeaux. Bordeaux for FreeBSD now has a .sh installer, the same one that we use on Linux, so you will need to have py-gtk installed for the installer to work properly.

Bordeaux for FreeBSD coming soon
Over the last couple day's I have been working on the Bordeaux for FreeBSD 7 port. We now have everything compiling and running but a lot more testing needs to be done before it's ready for a final release. Internet Explorer, Steam and Office 2003 are the only applications ive gotten around to testing thus far. The good news is everything that I have tested works fairly well on FreeBSD.
If you're a FreeBSD user and need to run any of the software that we currently support on the Linux client you might be interested in helping beta test this build and future builds up to the final stable release. At this time we cant give out beta builds, but what we can do is if you purchase a licence from the store for a Linux build then send a mail to support. This email is provided once you purchase a licence, and ask for a FreeBSD build I can send it to you.

Bordeaux 1.2 Released with Cellars support
Purchase Bordeaux 1.2 for $20.00

Bordeaux 1.2 was released today and its a major upgrade over the initial 1.0 release, version 1.2 comes with Office 2007 support, better IE support and cellar support. Cellars are in short just another name for bottle support, with the new cellar support each application or game can be installed into its own wineprefix "cellar" and on top of that you can install unsupported applications and games into their own unsupported cellar. This gives you a sandbox to test in while leaving your supported applications and games in a safe environment.

Wine Help and Discussion Forum
There is a new Wine help and discussion forum, wine-forum.org that is meant to be a meeting place for anyone interested in Wine usage or development. In the past there there has never been a single forum dedicated solely to Wine. The lack of a single forum has left people to post Wine related help and discussions in other forums. At the moment most users turn to their Linux distribution forum where Wine is often a sub-forum at most and questions often go unanswered.

Winefix - improved desktop integration for Wine
I found this on the Ubuntu user forums, thanks goes out to (deadlydeathcone) here is his post.
A script called winefix. In short, it allows Wine applications to be run just as easily as those native to Linux, meaning that they can be linked to or run from any directory, whether from a terminal or even a file manager like nautilus. It also handles some of the more awkward Wine extensions like .lnk and .msi, akkowing them to be run with a double click.

Wine Review
Wine Reviews is a site that contains information and reviews of Windows applications and games running on Linux using Wine. Wine is an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X, OpenGL, and Unix.
Here is most of the previous post, they cover Photoshop, MS Office, IE 6, ITunes, QuickTime on Linux. In the near future I plan to start adding games and other Office type apps such as Quicken, Dreamweaver, Quickbooks.
