As of now, the default version of Wine that comes with hardy is 0.9.59. If you enable the backports repository or the proposed repository, you'll get Wine 1.0.
What I'd like is for Wine 1.0 to be pushed out to all 0.9.59 Hardy Wine users. However, for this to be a good idea, we need to be really sure that there are no outstanding regressions between the two versions; the upgrade must not make things worse for anyone.
So, if you've used both Wine 0.9.59 and Wine 1.0, and the upgrade hasn't posed any problems that you didn't already have, please help. Post your positive experiences in this launchpad bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246118
Once enough people have done so, Wine 1.0 will be copied from hardy-proposed to hardy-updates, and all 800,000 Ubuntu Wine users will be able to enjoy 1.0.
Again, it's ok if the problem was in both Wine 0.9.59 and 1.0. What's important is that there is no use case where Wine 1.0 was worse than 0.9.59.
