And.. guess what the chatter was a year or more ago over at QCad...
hey.. QT3 is dead upstream.. what do we do about porting to QT4? QCAD
as early as the beginning of 2009 was ported to QT4.

Hmmm... what are they doing over in OProfile development.. oh look..
porting to QT4 (started around middle of last year).  Gee I wonder
why?  Maybe it's because QT3 is EOL.

Well now.. lets go look into Gambas... oh wow... they don't do
development on gb.qt anymore.  All development is done on gb.qt4.
Hmmm interesting... I wonder what relationship gb.qt4 has to QT3.....

Is there a common theme here?  I'm sure it's there somewhere...

Basically Ilya.. your examples are useless to prove your point... in
fact they proved everyone else's point.  Each and every one of your
examples is either already ported to QT4 or in the process of being
ported.  The developers all were deep into QT4 by no later than the
middle of 2009.... and most were stating on their mailing lists by
June 2009, that they were no longer developing on QT3.

A simple Google search revealed that.
