Firefox and Wine: two high profile releases
Firefox 3 has been release and is available for download, bringing not only big performance enhancements, but also UI changes as better fullscreen and the Awesome bar, and internal changes as well(new bookmarks system, malware protection, and more).
Wine, the Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X, OpenGL, and Unix, has finally reached version 1.0, after 15 years of development. It eases porting windows applications to unix platforms, or helps running windows applications unchanged on unix. A list of applications running on wine is available on Wine's AppDB.
Photoshop on Linux, courtesy of Google?
Google has contracted Codeweavers to make Adobe Photoshop CS and CS2 run better on GNU/Linux systems.
Google is already using Wine for Picasa on Linux, and contributed several patches to the project.
