Qt 4.3 and 4.4 series were unusable on non-windows and non-linux systems. Starting from 4.5 things improved considerably, so I am not against dropping 4.2 compatibility. However, I think that it would be lame of us to simply drop it for easily fixable problems. The point is that if even JMarc will not use 4.2 anymore, nobody is going to notice problems. -- Enrico
