It's time for another bi-weekly development release of the Wine package.

Key changes for this latest bi-weekly release, Wine 1.5.16, include:

- New version of the Mono package.
- Many improvements to the CMD command-line parser.
- More stream classes in the C++ runtime.
- Support for managing services in WMI.
