[bt-devel] coordinating the porting work

[Martin Gruner]

Hi Eeli,

sorry for interfering with your work. Maybe we should use the wiki to
document what everybody is working on? I work sporadically and
tried to port as much as possible quickly.

I'm glad that you try to make the port cleanly. I haven't had the
time/energy to do that, but you are welcome to remove remaining Qt3
compatibility code. Of course, clean code is better.

God bless,

Martin
