Oh man sorry I already know wine is reverse engineered stuff, but it still can be "based on" windows in a sense that you looked at windows to remake wine.

My question was if that reference was win11 or older windows versions

    Yes, from human language perspective, WINE can be "based on" Windows. I just wanted to clear this up in case a reader does not know or gets confused.

    Ah and now I picked up what your question was actually asking. You ask if WINE11 tries to replicate Windows 11 specifically? If that is the question, then no, it does not. WINE11 is just the current version number that happens to match the current version number of Windows 11. WINE11 includes all Windows compatibility layers from previous versions. I think that is how it works and I hope that I picked your actual question correctly.

    And yes, I just noticed that I sound robotic... Good lord, hope I'm not an Ai bot...
