Awesome, that's what I wanted to read. :-) > It is a valid point, and do we want to stay fairly close to the latest > released Qt, preferably without patches.

I have a couple of projects at work where we use 5.2, and I had to override Qt's behaviour (for simple stuff like logging to the journal and configuring logging categories in a file) using the public API. That was simple, but the cool, mantainable way is of course adding the feature in Qt itself so all applications have it automatically. We didn't had the time, but luckily Robin and Kai added those exact two features to 5.3, so we can get rid of our custom code. > Hope that answers your question. Definetely. And let us know if there is some way to help with these kind of things.
