Dear all,

I think I have done everything I can do on the branch (actually I just 
noticed a few remnants in config/, I will handle that).

What remains to be done? Who can help?

Kornel: there are still trace of Qt4 in
CmakeList.txt
INSTALL.cmake
development/cmake/modules/FindQt4.cmake
development/cmake/ConfigureChecks.cmake
and some others. Use 'git grep -il QT4' to find the relevant files.

Stephan:
The last FIXME KILLQT4 in the source, to know whether we still need to 
cache QTextLayout objects in Qt/Mac. They are correctly cached by Qt on 
other platforms.
development/LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh mentions qt4 too.

Everybody else: there are files in development that mention Qt4. Which 
ones should be removed/updated/moved_to_attic/left_as_they_are?
development/autotests/keytest.py
development/keystest/report_html.sh
development/keystest/setup.sh
development/lyx.rpm.README
development/lyxserver/server_monitor.cpp
development/tools/count_lines_of_included_code.sh
development/tools/count_total_lines_of_compiled_code.sh
development/tools/numbers

I would be happy to leave all these files as they are if they are not 
really used anymore.

JMarc
