This module should be able to host any removed classes if they are technically feasible to build on top of Qt5 after removal from the current library they live in.
You will need to: get agreement from the maintainer(s) to remove those models from Qt5 submit a patch to actually remove them submit a patch to add them to the "removed apis" repository further patches may be required to compile, for example if the class depends on private headers or non exported classes QFtp was easy to move, QHttp was harder (due to usage of QAuthenticatorPrivate) From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Stephen Kelly Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2012 15:39 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Development] proposing "removed apis" playground project On Tuesday, January 24, 2012 15:11:08 [email protected] wrote: > This project is to host the source code of APIs which have been removed in > Qt5, where the replacement does not cover all features.

Possibly QDirModel too (replaced by QFileSystemModel).
