I'm glad to see your name with an @digia.com mail :) Since you seem to be the main Qt Desktop Components developer considering the git log ^_- Anyway, what is the plan right now? Don't do anything for the desktop components till Qt 5 is released then developing the desktop components further till they are perfect and ready to be released with Qt 5.1? Last time i used them (~half a year ago or so) they certainly weren't perfect, but also not far from that. They are very usable as they are right now. Just a bit difficult to package and release with an application. I do hope Qt is going to do something about that. As in: ship a Qt binary package with all the requirements in it to get an application running that's build with the desktop components.
