Wine-Doors 0.1.3rc1 (Rioja)
Wine-Doors 0.1.3rc1 has been released - hopefully our only release candidate before 0.1.3.
There have been tons of bug fixes, new features and packages added since 0.1.2.

Fix for Wine CD support on Fedora 10
Fedora 10 now uses the cd label went mounting cdroms, so cd’s are now mounted as:
/media/[DISK LABEL]
Instead of like in previous versions:
/media/cdrom
This means you have to open up winecfg and change the value for D:// every time you insert a different cd, which is not fun.
A fix can be found here.
Solaris is suddenly awesome?
There has been a couple of Solaris related bugs on the trac since I joined Wine-Doors, so I’ve played around with Solaris quite a bit.
I’ve looked into getting Wine-Doors running on Solaris a few times but I’ve always had problems with setting up a decent build environment for WINE and the rest of Wine-Doors dependencies. [...]
Introducing Karma: The future of 0.2
With the release of 0.2 we will be bringing in a whole new infrastructure and way of doing things, WDDB - (Wine-Doors Data-Base) and karma.
From now on all the information for each application pack will be stored in WDDB, so instead of updated lots of XML files every time we release a new wine-doors release [...]

Since we have updated the application packs for the yet-unreleased Wine-Doors 0.1.3, 0.1.2 is now quite broken. For that reason, I urge everyone to update to 0.1.3 as soon as its available.
If you’re brave, you can update to our development version in SVN and help out by filing bug reports.
For the rest of you… hang [...]
Donations broken for a while
We’ve only just realised our donations button was broken :(
If you’ve sent us a donation and it hasn’t gotten through, please donate now :D
Wine-doors.org broken…
Last night I re-enabled a cron job to perform the repository update from SVN. Unfortunately I set an incorrect path, and as a result the wine-doors.org wordpress and everything in the public_html folder had been wiped out when the job ran.
** Please if you hit a 404 report it **
I’m putting together as much [...]
Registry tools
So for wine-doors 0.2 I need to have the ability to create registry patches between two bottles. The reason for this is our bottles architecture is unique in that it allows you to merge dependencies into the bottles by means of symbolic linking and registry patching. So for instance if I have two bottles, one [...]
Getting 0.1.3 out of the way
So I’m thinking about polishing up the decrepit 0.1.x release and pushing out the 0.1.3 package, this is a bit of a pain as we don’t currently have a clear and concise situation report with 0.1.x series. What would be helpful to me is if people were to test the current trunk and provide any [...]
