Hello,
Here're some news about LXQt 0.8.

1. Thanks to the hard work of Luis, now libqtxdg can use the new
QMimeDatabase and drop libmagic. He's updating the other components to
adopt the changes. After the related PRs are all merged, libqtxdg is
ready for a new release.

2. Welcome to our new developer, "P L. Lucas" (selairi), who has been
working on improving our multi-head support. Now the new monitor
configuration tool "lxqt-config-monitor" is part of lxqt-config.
Originally we intended to use it as a temporary replacement for the
broken lxqt-config-randr before it can be fixed, but actually
lxqt-config-monitor has all of the features of lxqt-config-randr after
Lucas's improvement. The new tool works pretty well. Please try it. If
there're no significant bugs, this part is ready, too.

3. Other parts are ready as well since we've already done all 0.8
milestones in the issue tracker. (except for translations)

If there're no objections or no critical bugs, I'd suggest that we do
the lxqt 0.8 release within one week. After that, let's focus on Qt5
and migrate to kwindowsystem, which will allow full wayland support
later.

Cheers!
