The Thanks
It all started with a Tweet. A special thanks to Jason Evangelho for recognizing our work with Valve and Linux gaming and reading his Twitter feed. And thanks to a Twitter (you know who you are, please reach out to us so we can send you some super sweet swag) user for recognizing the impact CodeWeavers and Wine have had in making gaming on Linux what it is today and bringing it to Jason’s attention.
