Unless some major problems come up, 1.1.44 will be the last of the 1.1.x series. The next release will be 1.2-rc1, which will mark the beginning of the code freeze. This should result in a 1.2 final sometime in June.
Would it be worthwhile to put together some sort of release announcement detailing changes and improvements in Wine between 1 and 1.2? Some thing similar to what other projects release that tech sites can pickup and talk about. Maybe even a more formal press release style document.
We definitely need a release changelog, yes.
It seems to me what we really want is more than a changelog but a proper release announcement. I want a journalist who has hardly heard of Wine to read the page and understand what we've done and why it's great.
I've created a rough skeleton of things to have here: http://wiki.winehq.org/Wine1.2Announcement
I'm very busy at the Ubuntu Developer Summit at the moment but I'll put some good work into it soon.
Thanks, Scott Ritchie
