From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What's new in this release:

Mono engine updated to version 9.0.0.
A number of system tray fixes.
Exception handling improvements on ARM platforms.
Various bug fixes.

It seems there’s no new feature

I'm fine with that.

Yes, much like almost every of Wine release. Increasing compatibility is the focus of Wine developement. compatibility issues are bugs, so fixing bugs is the main focus
