<p style="margin: 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">there are definitely plans to port Marble over to Qt 6.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">But so far there are no changes or substantial patches available yet.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">If you or anybody else has patches available, don't hesitate to send them our way.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">Ideally, we'd start off with the removal of all deprecated APIs within Qt 5.15.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">Then at one point, it would be great to have a Qt6 porting branch that should focus on the marble-qt version initially.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none;">Based on that one we could decide when to branch the current master into a dedicated "Qt 5 maintenance branch" and have the master branch depending on Qt6.</span></p>
