I echo this. I haven't seen any commits dealing with difficulty between the two OSes or having to keep code compiling or working with lack of features. I realise that my view of things is biased towards the non-graphical low end so there may be problems elsewhere. With this I mean to say that Qt can probably keep Windows 10 working unofficially for some time. We won't promise it works and we may not fix bugs relating to issues not found on later versions, but it shouldn't stop working all of a sudden. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Principal Engineer - Intel DCAI Platform & System Engineering
