WINE 10.11

WineHQ is following its usual schedule to prepare the version of WINE that will be delivered to us in early 2025. This is to deliver a development version every two weeks, and they only skip it when necessary for some reason. A few hours ago they have given us WINE 10.11, and the number of changes seems to suggest that the software is much more mature than it was a couple of years ago, when the changelog was well over 500.

As for new features, we only highlighted two in WINE 10.11: more preparation work for NTSync support and more support for generating Windows Runtime metadata in WIDL, in addition to the usual list of miscellaneous fixes. In terms of numbers, 292 changes have been made and corrected 25 bugs, those in the following list.
