Yea, pretty surprised by the announcement a couple of weeks ago. I thought
Qt6 would be built with QBS. I was wrong. I plan on continuing to use QBS,

migrate to CMAKE I will. It definitely won't happen within a year. Probably
2 to 3 years once support is dropped. CMAKE personally drives me nuts...
