Please insert "else" in the sentence, so it reads "everythine *else* continues 
just as before", meaning that KDAB's sudden withdrawal was noticed, but did 
not affect the rest of the development.

Note that they have since begun participating again. Whether it's to the same 
level, I can't say yet.

Because it goes without saying.

I can't speak for TQtC, but I don't see why they should change this in any 
way. It would only make things worse for them, by having to pick up 
maintenance of parts that are maintained by others today. Like me.

Not to mention all the bad PR it would generate.
