FYI, since discussions happened on IRC: Upon agreement with QtCore maintainer Thiago, a cli_parser branch has been created for QtBase, with Submit rights for Laszlo and anyone added to his Gerrit group "CLI Parser". Thiago has noted that this branch will not be merged directly into master, but will be used to develop the command line parser. Upon acceptance of the finalized parser, the branch history will be cleaned up and rebased before it is merged into master. If the final parser is not accepted into QtCore, it can be put into its own playground repo at that time. -- .marius _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
