we'll still be able to keep its... er... "classic" look & feel, I hope? ;-)
----- Original Message ----- From: "Jon Trulson" <j...@radscan.com> To: "CDE development" <cdesktopenv-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Tuesday, April 1, 2014 2:33:50 PM Subject: [cdesktopenv-devel] Good news! After consulting with Digia and ICS, I have decided that Motif is no longer the proper toolkit for use in CDE. As a result, we will begin migrating from the use of Motif in CDE to the Qt Framework, probably version 5.3, when it is released sometime this month. Qt brings quite a lot of capabilities to the table in terms of font and rendering support, OpenGL support, and a whole slew of other capabilities that Motif simply does not handle. Later today, I will begin committing the first patches - the first is to convert to qmake, rather than imake for building. Once those pieces are in place, we can begin the full conversion in earnest. When the conversion is complete, CDE will be renamed to QCDE, in line with it's Qt based roots. I hope I can count on your support as we usher CDE (QCDE) into a new era. -- Jon Trulson Last day, Capricorn fifteens. Year of the city, 2274.
