Gief WPF?

In theory, mapping DX12 calls to Vulkan calls should be easier than DX11 to OpenGL. I hope they'll start working on that.

In this wine version have some work related vc++ libraries and seems fix some issues with start 64bit apps

I hope that they would give a date for D3D11 green status. And an efficiency percentage that they can finally keep. They are not trustworthy.

If there's no Vulkan on MacOS they might no care about it no?

They don't even want to merge Gallium Nine...

Maybe it is because Gallium9 is only geared toward a specific use case (essentially AMD+DirectX9) I will give you that this software stack is really good at what it aims todo. I had a A10 laptop that I tried out Gallium9+patched wine a while back, it offered much better performance than the catalyst drivers could squeeze with all my old blizzard games. But the only logical way forward for Wine is going to be DX→Vulkan translation. Gallium is forever going to be off doing it's own thing like Pluto.
