          Don't get me wrong, I still love #CC0, but this is yet another #fail'ure of FLOSS in the struggle to achieve legal rationality.

            @vvillenave I was thinking between any release at all, including a bugfix release, but between "major" releases would also be interesting

            @mlinksva WRT major releases, http://www.winehq.org/announce/1.0 comes to mind... But that's more of a symbolic 1.0 than anything else.

            about 13 hours ago
          • Mike Linksvayer Mike Linksvayer V.Villenave

            @vvillenave and there wasn't a previous "major" release. But maybe wine holds different record, for time till first major release.

            I think "only" is meant in the "merely" sense there (if I correctly understand your concern).

            @mlinksva Certainly is an annoying website. Plus, reading a !GNU/Linux-related article interleaved with #MSFT ads is pretty frustrating.
