Qt 5.6 fixes various bugs that affect LyX users. I imagine we will try to ship our Mac and Windows binaries with it (please speak up if you disagree). It is scheduled [1] to be released December 8th. Qt 5.6 beta will be released in a few days. What are your opinions on releasing LyX 2.2.0 alpha with Qt 5.6 beta?
Does anyone have a feeling for how stable Qt 5.6 beta is expected to be? I have actually been using Qt 5.6 pre-alpha and have found it work well with LyX. But of course this is on one platform (and specifically the platform for which we will not pair LyX with Qt 5.6). Scott [1] https://wiki.qt.io/Qt-5.6-release
