->  This article says that we are NOT getting a Linux version, but a
->  windows version that runs under Wine.

that's precisely what corel has been doing - fixing wine so it can run
wp office 2k - they will actually be using winelib - and have the code
re-compiled for linux - it's still using the win32 api - and winelib on
linux is just liek libgtk etc - its a big lib providing all the win32
api calls... it's the onyl practical way they had to port it within a
reasonable amount of time. :)
