I was wrong---Qt 5.6 beta has now been delayed to 12 November. You can read the short discussion regarding the delay here: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.qt.releasing/1826 We have a few options as to what we should do about LyX 2.2.0 alpha: 1. Wait a couple weeks for Qt 5.6 beta to release alpha. 2. Release alpha sooner with the Qt 5.6 snapshot. There is "Not full set of installers but at least one for each platform" [1]: http://download.qt.io/snapshots/qt/5.6/5.6.0-beta/ The beta blockers are here: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-47958 3. Release alpha sooner with Qt 5.5.1 (just released two weeks ago). Thoughts? Scott [1] http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.qt.releasing/1826
