Re: Wine Gecko status

I do plan to do a new release as soon as I will be able to work on it and it's high on my TODO list. Earlier this year I was waiting for new Wine Mono out-of-prefix installation to settle so I can do the same for Gecko. I believe that it's proven right already, so it's just ETA is limited only by my time at this point.

Historically, I was doing regular releases every few Firefox releases. Sadly, at some point, it became impossible for us to use newer Gecko. That's why releases are no longer as regular as they were in the past. The next release will be still based on Gecko 47. And I agree it's been way too long, I'm definitely not happy about that. I have quite a few changes I'd like to do for the release and that includes fixing building with newer mingw-w64. I can't promise Python 3 support through. Gecko build scripts are very complex and I'm not a Python expert. I will look at it, but if it happens to require too much effort, I may decide to postpone that for future releases.

BTW, I just checked that I replied to your private email in May last year. I didn't have anything concrete to say, but you should have heard from me ;)
