The Wine Project has released Wine 11.0-rc1, marking the first release candidate in the development cycle for its annual stable release anticipated in January. This development version introduces the TWAINDSM 64-bit module, which provides enhanced support for scanner peripherals within the Wine environment. The inclusion of TWAINDSM 64-bit aims to improve peripheral compatibility for Windows applications running on Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. This release candidate indicates that the project is nearing feature completion for the 11.0 stable branch, with subsequent efforts focusing on addressing critical bugs before the final release.
