Jani: Qt shipped 5.8.0. Qt Lite shipped. Nice Job.
Maybe Qt should actually define "Feature Freeze" as the following: Qt will now FREEZE new development and task dev staff 100% for 2 months to clean out all the bugs that are P2 important and up and get caught up on bug fixing. At the end of 2 months, we will release 5.8.1 and then begin new development on 5.9 based on the bug fixed 5.8 branch. https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-46298 Version 5.2.1? Really? Why even report bugs if they are not going to get fixed for YEARS. There there is this glaring FONT omission: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-58002 How did this make it past any sort of QA? A coherent Qt reply appreciated: md On Tue, Jan 24, 2017 at 4:27 AM, Jani Heikkinen <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > Only one week left.
