Why that? The two subjects are unrelated AFAIS.
No. This thread would not exist if I had not tried to put a mathed fix in
trunk. Me complaining about a compile error with qt 4.2.1 then lead to a
quick fix by Richard, a discussion about the minimum required qt version
and people trying to rewrite history.
I see... difficult to follow :-)
And the rest of you should better get a consensus on the goals for 1.6
rather soon and then stick to that (even those who do not fully support
each goal).
My opinion is that we already have a bunch of new features. So, we
should do a bit more cleaning, implement context menu and cleanup some
dialogs (spellchecker first of all); then soft freeze the trunk in a
month or two. XML can wait for the next round IMHO because we obviously
don't have enough people caring for now.
You see? I doubt that this opinion is consensus.
Well, we need to express opinions to reach consensus, don't we? I know
that my opinions are in general not shared with old devs but this is my
opinion :-)
I want more frequent releases, this is the only way IMHO to avoid big
destabilization of the tree. If the XML branch is ready for writing
_and_ reading, then we should switch now and not wait for another six
months. If it is not ready, then I think the time frame for inclusion is
already passed.
