Re: [Development] Commercial-only LTS phase starts: Closing the 5.15 branch(es) on 5th January

I need some version clarification. Is Qt 5.15.3 in the "strict" phase of the Qt LTS? I have approved changes into Qt 5.15.3 under the assumption that we are still in the stable phase, as I have not seen any emails to the contrary. I assumed this as the QUIP [1] states: >strict: This period star

Re: [Development] Commercial-only LTS phase starts: Closing the 5.15 branch(es) on 5th January

Hi Nico, Basic “rule of thumb” is that if a commercial Qt license holder has access to Qt 5.15 in general, s/he also gets Qt 5.15.3 provided that the license is active at the time of Qt 5.15.3 release. Yours, Tuukka From: Wallmeier, Nico Date: Monday, 4. January 2021 at 17.33

Re: [Development] Commercial-only LTS phase starts: Closing the 5.15 branch(es) on 5th January

As far as I understand the next LTS release will be Qt 6.2. If 5.15 will not receive any more patches open source users are left without LTS till 6.2 is released. Am I correct? >From now on, will LTS releases be available only for commercial users? Thanks, Calogero On Mon, Jan 4, 2021 at 3:59 PM

Hi Roland, Just so that there is no misunderstanding Qt 5.15.2 release stays available for all users, it is just the upcoming LTS phase patch releases that will be commercial only. In essence for the open-source users Qt 5.15 is similar to Qt 5.13 and Qt 5.14 (non-LTS releases). Yours,

Hi, This is well understandable and expected. The Qt Company is prepared to handle the Qt 5.15 LTS phase work. I wanted to ask if there is interest, as there may be some external maintainers who are interested in what goes into the commercial-only LTS releases e.g. due to having customers using

Re: [Development] Commercial-only LTS phase starts: Closing the 5.15 branch(es) on 5th January

Tend to agree with Thiago. If there is a decision to close 5.15 sources, there'll be no more work from external/unpaid contributors. Regards, Konstantin пн, 4 янв. 2021 г. в 15:21, Thiago Macieira : > On Monday, 4 January 2021 07:55:03 -03 Tuukka Turunen wrote: > > We can arrange access for ext

Hi, With Qt 6.0.0 released and the first patch release (Qt 6.0.1) coming soon, it is time to enter the commercial-only LTS phase for Qt 5.15 LTS. All the existing 5.15 branches remain publicly visible, but they are closed for new commits (and cherry-picks). Exception being the Qt WebEngine (an
