Not really. We already merged the code base and have a working LxQt desktop
session.The session manager part needs some work, though.
The git repository and other infrastructures, such as mailing list are now
being set up, but it's still a work in progress.
It's not yet ready for production use at the moment, but things will
improve.
We even got new developers after the switch to Qt.
So, please keep using the old gtk+ version now, and stay tunned.
LxQt is more than an experiment now.
It's still rough, but later it will be a working DE.
Cheers!
