With Qt 5.6 being LTS and 5.7 removing licenses from modules, is there
enough thunder in 6.0 to get people away from the cooosy 5.6 release? ;-) I
mean - judging solely on historical events, the .0s have needed some time
to stabilize and the big bang features typically don't show up in the very
latest minor releases.
