Maybe if you actually entered the webpage…
OpenMW is a free, open source, and modern engine which re-implements and extends the 2002 NetImmerse engine for the open-world role-playing game The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.

How is this related to Skywind?
EDIT: Not saying it needs to be, just seeing if someone can tldr the difference between the 2 projects. I would love to revisit Morrowind and want the best experience…

Skywind: Playing the plot of Morrowind in the Skyrim engine. Game mechanics, spells, skills, models, textures, and bugs are all going to be similar to what you have in Skyrim, give or take some modding.
OpenMW: Playing Morrowind in an open source, crossplatform game engine. You are playing the exact same game as TES III (gameplay mechanics, spells, models, textures, etc are 1:1 identical in a vanilla install) but the code behind it is less buggy, more moddable, and it provides many modern quality-of-life improvements that the original engine couldn’t do.

Bethesda released it for free before they shut down their proprietary game launcher a few years ago, so a totally legitimate copy is already on the web archive :-)

They did release both Arena and Daggerfall for free after a while.

To be pedantic, the MW in OpenMW doesn’t stand for anything. It’s supposed to make players think of “Open MorroWind”, but only Bethesda has the right to use the name Morrowind.
