Please don't use the official Debian packages, they are rather out of date. Instead, please use the winehq.org .deb files (I'll upload instructions on how to get them by tomorrow), or compile from CVS. The documentation is also currently undergoing a rewrite - you can see its status as of the latest release on the winehq.org web page. Currently, only the introduction of the user guide is in its updated state - I'm working on patching up the Getting Wine chapter as well as some other stuff like the bug reporting guide.
Thank you for your input though, Scott Ritchie, Self Proclaimed Wine Usability guy

The manual lamented the lack of feedback, so I thought I'd give you some. 1.1.1 says "It tries to target both the new Wine user, by offering a step by step approach, and the experienced Wine user, by offering the reference material mentioned above."
Ordinarily, I would expect the novice stuff, followed by reference material. But, judging from the table of contents, this isn't what you've done. It would be good to say how the stuff is arranged.
Assuming the novice and expert stuff is interspersed, it might be better to separate them. Yes, I realize that's probably a lot of work. That's why this is only a though :)
You might also want to put a date and version number on the documentation; at least on Debian, looking at the html, I don't see it. I'm using wine-doc 0.0.20040716-1.3.
Thanks for your work on wine.
