Mr. Herman,

I'm inside Ubuntu movement to help, but for now I just not upgrade my box to
Feisty.

I need some help to upgrade to Feisty from Internet ( unfortunately my home
dir. IS IN Ubuntu partition not outside - to perform a clean install of
Ubuntu 7 ).

Maybe a path to Ubuntu Feisty repo's can help.

Work for next Ubuntu advance fast, but if Wine will be considered as a
strong key for Ubuntu - we need a Wine - Ubuntu dedicated team to
perform specific tests, to find answers.

Unfortunately not many peoples work now with ( Adobe ) Macromedia Studio 8
products under Wine, even that a lot are interested.

I am one of them - I want to cooperate - I find only 2-3 annoyances (not
bugs) for Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks.. such as slow rendering of UI
elements after I boxes movement on the screen and some listboxes that not
respond at mouse click ( on FIreworks 8).

That's all that I find, else all work great, almost perfect. But now
working with Edgy I observe FLA files saved under Ubuntu .. dont work
in Windows - back to Ubuntu work again. This never happen with Dapper. And
this is strange. Other guys working under other Linux distributions with
Flash 8 did not observe that. So is an Ubuntu specific bug, not wine.
Other strange thing on Edgy -> sometime programs started with WIne - crash
Nautilius Desktop -> from wine 0.9.24 to last wine 0.9.26. This is not so
easy to reproduce - is a random crash - only when he want ( ! ).

I will test wine for feisty - but for now my only Wine repo' is for Edgy.
My wine version : 0.9.26.

If you can provide me a link or an adress to set one repository
for Wine ( on Feisty ) - will help me.

On the other hand, I will request some help from Wine guys - maybe is better
to slow development in favor of fix problems before next step ;). Hope they
will have time to fix rendering problems. On the same time I hope a stable
Gnome Desktop for Feisty, not just fancy bells, because I dream in one day
to implement here Ubuntu for production Office / DTP / Design for Web.

Good Luck.
