Alright folks, I have to confess that the 1.6 release came and I didn't immediately get up and dance. In fact, a new Wine release was almost...boring. I think we have to consider that a major milestone in of itself. New, useful releases are just a matter of course for us now. Woohoo! Now I'm dancing <grin>. Cheers, Jeremy

I keep hearing "Considering that it took you 15 years for 1.0 you are grinding them out really fast now" ;) Ciao, Marcus

What was most striking to me about this release was the fact that not a single bug was targeted to be fixed for 1.6. The practice of nominating bugs for specific milestones seems to have been abandoned. I can't help but wonder why. -- Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio(a)earthlink.net>

Either we are good :) Or we should have reminded and called for this kind of tagging and bug squashing work. Ciao, Marcus

I think working from the regressions list is more productive (and we have made some good progress there). -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

We noticed too late. ;) But thats software management life, you always have bugs left over when you release. More for 1.6.1 or 1.7.x :) Ciao, Marcus

So maybe now is the time to start thinking about bugs to target for 1.8. There are longstanding bugs that are not regressions, but they do affect a lot of apps. -- Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio(a)earthlink.net>
