At the same time, the release of the Wine Staging 6.16 project was formed, within which extended builds of Wine are formed, including patches that are not fully ready or risky, not yet suitable for acceptance into the main Wine branch. Compared to Wine, Wine Staging provides 605 additional patches.
The new release is synchronized with the Wine 6.16 codebase. Two patches have been translated into the main Wine package: ws2_32 (returns the correct time for SO_CONNECT_TIME) and dpnet (implements IDirectPlay8Server EnumServiceProviders). The composition includes patches with the implementation of the D3DX11GetImageInfoFromMemory and D3DX11CreateTextureFromMemory functions. Updated server-default_integrity and ntdll-Syscall_Emulation patches.
