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...

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.

1.2 released!

Post by JeZ-l-Lee »

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

It probably doesn't exist, so you'll have to compile it yourself. But at this point, Ubuntu has a new LTS release, after all.

I know this, but on my working PC I have previous release. Also when I'm compile Wine It's very large. For the sample the user32.dll.so from Wine dep package ~1 Mb, but from my compile ~3 Mb. I think that when I compile the Wine there I have the debug symbols .
