wine users - Jan 2010 - Which is the *Stable* download for Slackware?

I'm trying this again .....
See
http://www.winehq.org/download/
Notice the text that says:
"Latest stable release:	Wine 1.0.1"

Now look for this string:
"Slackware  binary .tgz for Slackware 10.2"
half a page down on my monitor:

Click on the "Slackware" link:
You will be taken to the Sourceforge page at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wine/files/Slackware%20Packages/

and I'm not sure from what I see there - which is the stable
release for slackware 13.0?
Can anyone help?
thanks

First you need to understand just what "stable" means here.
"Stable" refers to the branch as a whole, which is "stable"
in the sense of "doesn't change much." It does NOT mean that
version will perform better or is less likely to crash. In most cases, the
latest development release offers better performance and stability.

There have been only two releases so far in the stable branch, 1.0.0 and 1.0.1.
It looks like Slackware only has the earlier package.  It also looks like the
latest development release they have is 1.1.29, which is pretty out of date. The
current development release is 1.1.37.

I have no more idea than you what version of Slackware these packages are for,
or why there apparently hasn't been a new one in such a long time. Packages
are built by the distros; you really should be asking about this on the
Slackware forum, or contact the Slackware package maintainer.

Or you could just build Wine yourself.

Try SlackBuilds.org.

Specifically, try here

The version there is even older than the one in the Sourceforge archive. 

But I did find this:
http://slackware.opennix.com/?slackversion=13.0&name=wine (disclaimer: I
know nothing about who built it or whether/how well it works).
