Run Mac OSX programs on Windows

Is it possible to start an offshoot of the WineHQ project that is dedicated to running Mac OSX programs on Windows? Just a thought.

not even remotely related... that would be completely separate project that would take just as much work as Wine takes now... no mixing or relationship between the two would be needed.

http://www.maconlinux.org/ Would be the nearest project I know of.

Big.glass97 also the core of wine it self is not windows compatible as such. So exactly why do you think we would be interested at all a project for windows.

Looks very old as well. Might be an abandoned project. Don't know if
it is worth trying to get MacOSX specific software to run on either
Linux or Windows. Most Mac software is now available for Windows, so
what program are you trying to get to run?
