the best Regression from Platinum report during rc1, so I'm going to
send him a Wine t-shirt (if it fits, he can have the very last Drunken Penguin t-shirt).
Congratulations Dabski!
Bug Status
There are 26 open 1.0 bugs as of 23 May.

Most of them will simply be rolled over to be fixed for a later release; we only have
time to fix a few, and much as we'd like to fix the rest, most are not showstoppers.

2493 Multi-select listview: Shift-arrow up only selects top two items
5024 Thief: Deadly Shadows crashes:page fault on read access to 0x0000040c

May 2, 2008: Code freeze in effect, on towards wine 1.0!
Wine is finally in code freeze in preparation for releasing wine 1.0, and
we need your help!
If you are a user, now would be the time to help us find regressions and
file them at bugzilla so we know what
we have to fix.
According to Wine's
release plan, wine-1.0.0-rc1, will be the first release candidate for 1.0.
It is expected to be released at 09th of May 2008.
The code freeze will be less rigid at first, but we're serious about not
destabilizing Wine at this point. So go ahead and post your patches, but make
sure you've got your ducks in a row, and don't be surprised if Alexandre
pushes back.
During the code freeze, patches that are simple, come with a conformance
test, fix a regression and/or are low risk are more likely to get in than
other patches. This has always been true, but it's even more true during a
code freeze. We will actively discourage patches that might endanger a June
1.0 release.
There are
45 open 1.0 bugs as of 2 May. Most of these will simply be rolled over
to be fixed for a later release; we only have time to fix a few, and much
as we'd like to fix the rest, most are not showstoppers.
