I still hear suggestions along the lines of pushing stuff into 5.8, from which they "eventually get merged into 5.9 and dev". That merging seems to be an occasional manual process, though, so the overall situation is confusing indeed. At any rate, I think it would be wise to do a 5.8->5.9 merge before even considering closing 5.8, lest we lose bugfixes. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
