> rich text branch of KWord was started and became the focal point of KWord
> development... The problem was that the new widget was only slated to
> appear in Qt3. Recently, Thomas Zander reasoned that a stable Qt3 was too
> far off and considering that current users needed more support right now,
> came to the conclusion that it might be best to drop the coolness-enhanced
> branch. Fortunately, David Faure valiantly tackled the task of backporting
> the Qt3 rich text widget to Qt2 and succeeded! This could be a big boost to
> rapid KWord development.
