This is release 20020605 of Wine, a free implementation of Windows on
Unix.  This is still a developers only release.  There are many bugs
and unimplemented features.  Most applications still do not work
correctly.

Patches should be submitted to "wine-patches at winehq.com".  Please don't
forget to include a ChangeLog entry.

WHAT'S NEW with Wine-20020605: (see ChangeLog for details)
	- Better Mingw support, including cross-compilation on Linux.
	- Still more dll separation work.
	- Winelib applications now get loaded much like builtin dlls.
	- Some command-line options replaced by config entries.
	- Multimedia improvements, including an MP3 decoder.
	- Massive whitespace cleanup.
	- New Winelib file manager.
	- Lots of bug fixes.
