The Wine team is proud to announce that the stable release Wine 5.0 is now available.

This release represents a year of development effort and over 7,400 individual changes. It contains a large number of improvements that are listed in the release notes below. The main highlights are:

• Builtin modules in PE format.
• Multi-monitor support.
• XAudio2 reimplementation.
• Vulkan 1.1 support.

This release is dedicated to the memory of Józef Kucia, who passed away in August 2019 at the young age of 30. Józef was a major contributor to Wine's Direct3D implementation, and the lead developer of the vkd3d project. His skills and his kindness are sorely missed by all of us.

The source is available now. Binary packages are in the process of being built, and will appear soon at their respective download locations.
