Part of the rationale for these projects is to find out areas where
|
||||||
|
Wine portability is lacking. This is especially true of the
|
||||||
|
ReactOS project which is a reimplementation of the Windows kernel
|
||||||
|
and should thus be able to reuse most of Wine dlls.

Another reason for pursuing these projects is to be able to
|
||||||
|
replace a single Windows dll with its Wine counterpart. Besides
|
||||||
|
being a good test for the Wine dll, this lets us detect cases where
|
||||||
|
we made incorrect assumptions about how the dlls interact.
