Unfortunately there isn't. We need to get Qt5.9 out first & then start doing 5.6.3 and 5.10 and so on there isn't enough time to get 5.6.3 out before summer holidays. But we should be able to get one or two 5.6.3 snapshots (or release candidates) out before summer holidays. That way we should be quite close to 5.6.3 when coming back... > > At this time, 5.6.3 has 405 patches in qtbase, versus 530 that went there for > 5.6.2.

And it would place 5.6.3 more or less half-way between 5.6.2 > (Nov > 2016) and 5.6.4 (Feb 2018). I agree. But on the other hand there is that many changes already in and quite long time since we tested this release and that's why we surely need time to test & fix the remaining things before we are ready for the release. - Jani _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
