Someone wrote that Alfkil, the developer of our Qt port, sold his OS4 machine... Anyone know if that's true?

Hi all!
It has been a while since I showed my face in here, so to clear up a few misunderstadings... :) I have not sold my X1000. I lent it to a friend due to space constraints in my flat. Now, I DID sell my classic machine (A1200T with BPPC upgraded by stachu100). I was pretty sure, I would not be using it, since I always end up working on stuff on the OS4 platform. But I must admit, I am a little bit heartbroken :). It has found itself a good very good home not too far away, and I have started using emulators to get my Classic fix. :) I am planning to do a small Qt upgrade soon. It will take a little time, since it has been so long since I looked at the code. Mainly the aim is to fix working problems with the long list of Qt apps, that got ported during the AACU Challenge. I am not sure how much time I will have for looking into Qt5, but if time allows, then I will give it a go. And possibly brush up on other smaller projects like Db101 and BananaBar. |

I think, when we were drunk, we talked about him buying it. I always knew, though, that he was not serious :). |

Reports of the sale of Alfkil's X1000 are greatly exaggerated.

I am a little disappointed, that nobody has complained about the rendering bug in Qt on OS 4.1 Final Edition. Is nobody using Qt apps at all, or are you all just a bunch of lazy bastards??!
![]() If have fixed it and a few other things. If anyone is ready for a beta test run, send me a PM or an email. You can find my email in some of the old Qt flabls. !! |
