Hi,

FWIW, the page I made just replaced the Qt 4 to Qt 5 porting guide, so I didn't 
put any thought into whether we should change the existing structure. As long 
as they are accessible from a general "porting" document, I think it is a good 
idea to move specifics into their respective modules. That would make it 
possible to do the documentation as part of the change as well, instead of as 
an afterthought.

Emne: [Development] Documenting Qt 6 API breakages

Hi,

We should start documenting the API changes that Qt 6.0 brings soon. This will 
allow getting people getting an overview, help early adopters, and will give us 
time to improve the documentation before the release.

Now I see that there are different paths taken:
- Eskil and others have started listing changes in a page in the qtdoc 
repository, https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt6-dev/sourcebreaks.html
- I created a skeleton for Qt Core changes in the qtbase repository: 
https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/299664 .

I wasn't aware of the existing page in qtdoc; Anyhow, from past experience I 
prefer having the documentation nearby the actual code. I therefore would like 
move the existing sections about Qt Quick, Qt OpenGL to the respective module 
documentation and let https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt6-dev/sourcebreaks.html 
just link to the module documentation pages.

Thoughts?

Kai
