So, congrats everyone, 1.4 is out and I'm very happy about it :)
I wanted to thank Alexandre for his release announcement, it was very
through and informative. It also looked like a lot of work.
This made me wonder if we could instead build up the announcement
gradually with some sort of proces
. In my case I only noticed when a bug report came
in and I manually looked at the package build log.
This sort of thing would be much less likely to happen if such a build
dependency change were noted in the release notes, such as a "OSS 3 no
longer supported" bullet point.
Thanks,
Scott Ritchie

It installs fine, however almost not

cleaning up deprecated alsa calls that broke older alsa drivers on
various distributions (which I happened to spot - I thought it might
have been the pulseaudio adapter, but my machine is currently using a
real alsa driver).
Regressions happen. If they are in ap

I'd disagree on "the best" part. Looking at bugzilla and forum people thing
t
mean, how proud do we need to be about not running everything?

work. But think of all the applications that *do* work; given what
Wine is working against, this is an amasing achievement. Wine can and
does run Office, Photoshop, ITunes, Oblivion, Peggle and a myriad
other applications (some better than others).
So yes, highlight the known issues in the release

I think this deserves more discussion but I am not quite ready. I'll
post a reply on Monday as an RFC
Since all of the 1.0 blocker bugs being pushed back, wine-1.0 release notes
should list all of those as major known problems. Otherwise people will get
a bad impression that wine-1.0 means more then less working release.
Also release notes should mention that wine-1.0 is not suitable for most

I have a question about the Wine release notes. Do the Wine developers
work from bugzilla or do they usually just work on a specific
application feature? Would it require too much extra effort on the
release notes to associate a specific change with a bugzilla bug-fix or
specific application

Hi guys,
Raphael pointed out on IRC that the great OpenGL work that went into the
last release wasn't mentioned in the "What's new" list that goes out with
each snapshot.
As it's unreasonable to expect Alexandre to remember or mention every
large piece of work that goes into any given release, ho
