              @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.

              @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).
