Given the amount of progress Wine has made over the past year,
it seems (to me anyway) that the time may be appropriate to
try for Wine version 1.0.
I was hoping to spark a conversation on this topic, in two basic areas:
1. Should we do it? (If not, why not, and when?)
2. What needs to be done before we can release Wine 1.0?
I'll start with my personal list:
1. All apps listed as a '5' work perfectly with Wine
(revising the apps database so that it's accurate
is a fine way to accomplish this, IMO).
2. Many sample applications compile and work with Winelib 'out of
the box' (along the lines of the work that Francois Gouget is doing).
3. The installation and configuration stuff is cleaner
(I think it's mostly there; I just think it needs a
little spit and polish).
4. The wine server interface is standardized so that
Wine version 1.01 and version 1.1 and version 2.0
will be able to interoperate with the Wine 1.0 server.
Thoughts? Comments?
