I'd call it "most patched repository". Or "most recently patched repository". I can't emit a quality assessment of whether the patches applied fix issues, introduce issues or introduce features. No one from the Qt Project was involved in any QA in that repository, which means we cannot offer an informed opinion. And since no one was involved, there was no knowledge transfer. I would at the very least be very conservative about taking anything from them. As has been the case with Trinity, they never asked for help, they never consulted anyone with knowledge. They just go off and do stuff. > > Also, the tree is only qt-x11.

But whether it's better than the last official release, tested and QA'ed by the people who made all the previous releases... that's another story and probably subjective. ftp://ftp.qt-project.org/qt/source/qt-embedded-free-3.3.8b.tar.gz ftp://ftp.qt-project.org/qt/source/qt-mac-free-3.3.8b.tar.gz ftp://ftp.qt-project.org/qt/source/qt-x11-free-3.3.8b.tar.gz -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
