Not necessarily, why not stick with Ot3? It's not going to disappear
in a night. I know big banks still using old mainframes for
compatibility reasons and maintain old IBM assembler code for the same
reason. As these are not distributed things, where is the problem?

But then, Qt4.0 came out like 3 years ago, so it's not that new. And
it's such a good API, there will most likely never be a Qt5 if I
understood the Trolltech devs right (hum, Nokia devs now actually).

Did you try the conversion scripts Qt3to4? They come with the new API
and you really don't have to rewrite ALL your code. Most of it can be
ported automatically with these scripts. So take a deep breath and go
on :)
