Wine 1.9.19 appears to be a minor update that only implements an initial version of a udev bus driver for HID, improves joystick support, as well as the metafile support in GDI+, and introduces the DC rendering functionality in Direct2D. Wine 1.9.19 also fixes a total of 19 issues reported by users since the previous development release, namely Wine 1.9.18, thus improving support for various Windows applications and games. It looks like many Direct2D and Delphi 7 applications should now work a lot better with this version of Wine.
