Hi Michael, |

Long ago (that is, my first PPC G4/G5 age), I got with help from others |
| 4 |
Qt running on macOS. At some point, this became too much of a burden, |
| 5 |
so it was abandoned since stuff stopped working, etc. Reviving this is |
| 6 |
fine, for as long as it gets used/maintained. I've recently reached the |
| 7 |
conclusion we should cut all the crap that isn't used, for it simply |
| 8 |
stalls us in getting rid of the prefix overlay (yes this is still a |
| 9 |
goal). I think it is interesting to get Qt running, but if you feel |
| 10 |
it's not going to be maintained or something, perhaps it's better off in |
| 11 |
an overlay for now? |
| 12 |
|

Thanks, |
| 14 |
