Hi
Jonathan Riddell has sent me a reply regarding the wine status in Ubuntu. I am also putting that message below. I have nominated Scott Ritchie as maintainer for wine in Ubuntu. I think we need to put up a proposal for wine for Ubuntu. Any Ideas, guys.
Thanks, VJ

What is the current release/packaing stratergy wrt Wine. Is it possible toomchange the release/packaging statergy of Wine. As the current release of wine is fortnightly and mostly its bug fix release. And the ubuntu universe version is not upto date with the current wine release. I would like to create a blueprint for wine like as Till the release of 1.0 we will be releasing fortnightly updates in sync with Wine releases. After that we will give patches based on fixes given on main branch like all other s/w till next version. I think this is a good statergy. And I t will be benificial to wine and ubuntu. Can i make such a blue print and make it available for fiesty, please. I dont mind if you do it.
I don't know of anyone who actively works on wine in the Ubuntu archives. I'd recommend posting a proposal to ubuntu-motu for more regular updates. But updates must follow the ubuntu release schedule.
