http://www.winehq.org/announce/1.2 I also submitted it to Slashdot, please click up: http://slashdot.org/submission/1284766/Wine-12-released - d. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Alexandre Julliard <julliard at winehq.org> Date: 16 July 2010 19:22 Subject: Post-release plans To: wine-devel at winehq.org Folks, First I want to thank everybody for your great work of the past two years. I'm very happy with what we have achieved with 1.2 (even if we didn't manage to get the regression numbers down ;-) You should all go out and have a drink to celebrate. Code freeze is of course lifted now, so once you have recovered from your hangover you can go wild with patches again. Please resubmit any patch that was marked deferred (rebased to the current tip of course). Releases will be made from the 1.3.x development branch every two weeks as usual. The 'stable' git branch has been reset to point to 1.2. Fixes can be nominated for cherry-picking to the stable branch by setting the '1.2.x' milestone in bugzilla. Please only nominate bugs that are already fixed in the tip and that contain the sha1 of the corresponding commit. There will be a 1.2.1 release in a couple of months. There may be further stable releases if enough fixes can be still be cherry-picked cleanly to make it worth it. Bugs that are currently on the 1.2 milestone should not be automatically carried forward to the 1.4 milestone. We'll want to reevaluate which bugs are really important for 1.4, based on the release criteria once these are defined. But of course fixing the remaining 1.2-nominated bugs is still allowed... -- Alexandre Julliard julliard at winehq.org
Ah, I wondered why it wasn't on the Slashdot front page yet. :P Congratulations devs on your second stable Wine release! Here's to the next major release.
Hi, Congrats on Wine 1.2 release! I have a valve Steam account with like 30 games and most of them work flawlessly. (which cures my withdrawal from Window(R)) When will the LaunchPad PPA for Ubuntu 10.04 be updated? Thank you very much!

Congratulations indeed! I am amazed that among all the games (requiring DX9 or less) I have tested (over 100!), only a few of them still require Windows to work. This is very good. I can't wait to see what 1.4 will bring to the table. Cheers, and looking forward to the avalanche of patches coming in the following weeks :D
