The Wine 11.4 development release is now available for the Windows to Linux compatibility layer, bringing assorted new features and fixes. Following their usual schedule of a new development build around every two weeks, with the previous version Wine 11.3 released 20th February.
From the release notes the highlights are for Wine 11.4:
- SAX reader reimplemented in MSXML.
- Resampling optimizations in DirectSound.
- Beginnings of a proper CFGMGR32 implementation.
- Better Unix timezone matching.
