ReactOS Wine Staging question

Post by ROCKNROLLKID »

Sorry if this has been answered before but a search through documents plus forums pop up with nothing. Anyways, I just saw that yesterday ReactOS was synced with Wine Staging 2.16, but the latest version is 2.19. In fact, every sync seems to be 2-4 versions behind. Why is this? Shouldn't we be using the latest to do proper testing?

My guess is that it takes time to go through a revision and see what parts we can use and what parts need altered or need some more permanent code we already have applied since WINE doesn't want it. And by the time any review of this sort is complete, they are already several ahead of us, and thus it is more beneficial to continue what was reviewed than to start over and be further behind.

Yes, I admit that I was just guessing.
