I would like to see something like the following (and it follows the OpenOffice.org strategy for releases):
Wine-<version>-<platform>-<CPU>-<installer>.<compression-type>
So Wine for the Mac Intel would appear like this:
Wine-1.1.9-MacOSX-Intel-DragnDrop.dmg
Where Wine for a X86 for Ubuntu 8.1 would appear like this for an x86:
Wine-1.1.9-Ubuntu8.10-x86-apt.tar.gz (assuming that the release was in tar.gz.)
It might make sense for .tar.gz files, but it doesn't make too much sense for .deb and .rpm files, which already have names which are dictated to some extent by the repository they're in.
Also, ideally, I'd rather see somewhat less distro-specific builds of Wine anyway. Not sure how practical that is, though, until we can build against LSB.
