Three releases to fix 88 nasty bugs?
The sad fact is that it would take a lot more than that to fix them all, and it probably doesn't make sense to hold up the release until it's perfect. We probably want to update http://wiki.winehq.org/WineReleaseCriteria with the current release criteria. Some other interesting searches: Bugs marked as 'regression' (340!): http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug...

I thought the code freeze, RC cycle would be more like three months not three releases, e.g six weeks. But I'm 100% sure AJ knows best. :)

Nobody said it can't be three months. It will last as long as good fixes keep pouring in. In practice after 1-2 months we usually run out of bugs that can be reasonably fixed; at that point it wouldn't make sense to hold the release for another month to get 3 extra fixes. And like last time, I'm planning to make rc releases on a weekly schedule, so we should get plenty of them. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org
While we're linking to bug lists, this one seems most interesting to me: http://bit.ly/bfOHK5 That's the list of major regressions introduced since 1.0-rc1. Bug 13891 in particular will make us look bad if it's not fixed before 1.2. A lot of apps (as I understand it, any app that does it properly) can't open url's anymore in the native browser, and this worked in 1.0.

Actually, when I read through the report, it broke in 1.0-rc4 but worked in 0.9.52. That is one old bug and aggravating too. James McKenzie

You're right, so it didn't work in 1.0.
That's.. that might actually be worse.
Vincent: This should be on the 1.2 todo list. This really needs to be fixed and is/was the topic of a thread on the Wine-Users list recently. James McKenzie

What criteria did you use to build that list? There's a bunch of recent breakage in cursor support that make a lot of games very difficult to use. Erich Hoover ehoover(a)mines.edu
