The migration has been slow because there's little incentive for users to update to msvc2015/7. If we drop 2013 for Qt 5.10 then migrations would accelerate. QNX is a much different problem though, you can't just recompile your program with QNX 7. Besides the new toolchain, you'd need a new operating system, new drivers, new BSP, and maybe new hardware. It's too complicated and would hurt part of our ecosystem. I think we should dump msvc2013 but keep QNX 6.6.
