I'm also not sure the patch collection against 5.15.2 really qualifies as
a_fork_ in the traditional sense. It's not diverging from a public branch we

The decision will eventually alienate OS community which will force current
licensees consider the viabilty of the platform for their next generation of
products. There is a lot of air in the QtC stock price as a result of the new
licensees and how well Qt/Qml fits the needs. I certainly hope th
