| This is release 0.9 of Wine, a free implementation of Windows on Unix. |
| After 12 years of development, this release marks the beginning of the |
| beta testing phase. Everybody is encouraged to try it; while there |
| are still bugs, most applications are expected to at least install and |
| do something useful. |
