I asked Sune to make it for everyone. He was going to add a configure-time switch to enable the feature. I don't see how the feature is useful. It was used only by the old evaluation "nag screen". We're making a conscious decision to deprecate the feature and stop updating it. We could choose today's date, but I thought it would be nicer to use 5.0's release date. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
