Hi all,

there is a bugfix release of the QT3 series. Its 3.3.8b which has the UTF-8 
patch applied and has changed the licence to GPLv3. This is what i have seen 
so far. The file "changes-3.3.8b" in the package contains

<copy>
Qt 3.3.8b is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward
compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 3.3.b, Qt 3.3.7, Qt 3.3.6,
Qt 3.3.5, 3.3.4, Qt 3.3.3, Qt 3.3.2, Qt 3.3.1 and Qt 3.3.0.

General Improvements

    * This version adds the GNU Public License version 3 as a
      possible choice for licenses to the Open Source releases of Qt 3.

Before I update the book i would like to ask you to review the patch just to 
avoid to break something.

Thanks a lot!
