Things in wine break all the time, users know it and are used to it, if d3d8 breaks for 3 releases, people will just use an old version until things are fixed. Many people stayed at wine-20031212 for months because of regressions
I think that's a bad attitude. I hear one of two things all the time: 1. "Wine rocks. All my windows programs just work." 2. "Wine sucks. Nothing will run." Lots of people install Wine, have a good experience, and never bother upgrading. Lots of other people install Wine, have a bad experience, and never bother trying it again. Personally, I like to hear stories like #1. Anyway, that wasn't really what I was getting at.. last spring Lionel had this to say about a wined3d library: http://www.winehq.org/?interview=15 It does make sense it could be done incrementally. -Brian
