Do I have to write a form mail for this? No, it's not fine for me. I don't do it, and I have reasons for not doing it. Perhaps it's news to some, but there is *no* stable version/branch of Wine, anything can break anytime, and it's impossible to predict. You never know if the next release is going to be broken or not; if you skip releases, the damage is greater if it does happen. If you don't, users always have something to fall back on. (It also reduces risk of packaging errors when I can tweak the packaging gradually and make sure everything's OK before jumping to the latest.)
