If you read unofficial Google OS blog, you notice, that people expect gOS (based on linux) to run windows programs for them to dump windows. So please mail a letter to Google to tell them to collaborate with AND FUND Wine project to bring this idea closer to reality. When the migration from Windows to gOS takes place, the Wine could be slowly dropped as more and better apps are built for Google OS, resoluting Microsoft becoming FINALLY OBSOLETE. Make it happen all over again as happened with Netscape!

It could be dropped as an official extension for gOS, but not for other Linux distros. Anyway, thats what I would do, but I bet Google is a lot smarter than I am. Better think of all the financial backing you would get from Google if you were to negotiate with them to integrate Wine into gOS. This project would get a major omgwtfrocketboost on the way of killing Microsoft.
