But's what i'm targeting, the module is meant for these users and it will contain multiple specialized libs. The benefit of having it as a module is that it can use the same build infrastructure, it's shipped with Qt, integrated in qmake/cmake, using the same Documentation. It should be part of Qt, but it's only needed on specific platforms, like all the other extra repositories. I think nobody cares about the qtwinextras beside the people developing for it. The module shouldn't be contained in any Desktop Installer or on mobile platforms, it's just available on automotive platforms and their SDKs -- Dominik Holland SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER Pelagicore AG Balanstr. 55, 81541 Munich, Germany +49 (0)171 760 25 96 dominik.holl...@pelagicore.com www.pelagicore.com _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
