So much Wine is going to ferment the site into the Planet of the Grapes.

QuoteInitial support for installing Plug and Play drivers.

anyone who can explain what this means?

You should file a bug report on the wine tracker, asking for less frequent releases or releasing puns along with new versions to alleviate the pun pressure on news outlets.

Likewise would love to know what this implies.

Office 2016, when is it officially supported ???

I'm no expert, but I'm old so I remember the term. So, back in the day, if you had peripherals for your computer you'd have to have a driver for it; peripherals often came with CDs that had a driver for you to install. The internet was barely a thing and didn't have that kind of useful stuff on it--or a little later, it did, somewhere, but actually finding it would be a massive pain. I believe plug-and-play was Windows' marketing term for their first attempt to have pre-built drivers for various stuff already in the OS so you could plug in a thing and have it supposedly Just Work. Something like that. This was back in the Windows 95/98/like that era.

If we assume that, I guess they might be talking about some very odd/specific peripherals that still to this day require a driver installation of some kind.

Oh please, support OSS instead, LibreOffice is a very nice MS Office replacement.

Mostly this. Early PC OS iterations assumed that all hardware was present at boot time. As more technology appeared that allowed hardware to be connected at runtime, there needed to be a mechanism for the OS to recognise changes without a reboot and install/remove a driver as necessary. Plug and Play did this, checking local and remote repositories and offering the user the option to provide a driver from disk.

Most apps don't rely on this OS capability, so Wine has probably just got around to adding the facility.

It is probably of interest to gamers mainly if you like to suspend Linux with games running, which often causes problems. Some games may work better if they know the hardware has been stopped and restarted. I suspect most games will still hate suspend, regardless of any changes, and this is just the first steps, so it probably means nothing in the short term.
