[pkg-wine-party] Looking for feedback: changing the -unstable in wine-unstable

Hey everyone,

I think the name of the package needs to change prior to ending up in
testing/stable.

I'm currently favoring -next, but -development is also a strong
contender since that is what upstream calls it (but it's rather long
to type).

I've also thought about version numbers (like plain old 1.7), but that
means a trip to new for every new major version.  That doesn't happen
to often, but it's sufficiently annoying that I would prefer to avoid
it.

I've also thought about swapping the naming of two wine packages to
end up with wine-stable and wine, but that might be too disruptive.

So, any opinions, or any other ideas?

Best wishes,
Mike
