QT isn't the default toolkit in Maemo and it was only introduced at all in the PR1.2 release which only came out around 3-4 months ago so its not a core part of their UI experience on maemo. So that's not really a good argument for upgrading it in F-13. Peter -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
