Wine Release Countdown
Wine 1.0 countdown: 54 days to release, 12 days to freeze!

See WineReleasePlan for details.

wine-0.9.60 was released on Friday, April 20th, 2008.

According to http://wiki.winehq.org/WineReleasePlan wine-0.9.61, due
out Friday, May 2, 2008, will be the first release candidate for 1.0,
and mark the start of the code freeze.

During the code freeze, patches that
    * are simple
    * come with a conformance test
    * fix a regression
    * are low risk
are more likely to get in than other patches. (Heck, that's always
true, but it's even truer during a freeze.) We will actively
discourage patches that might endanger the 1.0 release date (June
13th).

Bug Status

There are 63 open 1.0 bugs as of 20 April. Most of these will simply
be rolled over to be fixed for a later release; we only have time to
fix a few, and much as we'd like to fix the rest, most are not
showstoppers.
