[Digikam-users] Future plan : next KDE4 release and future Qt5 port.

[Sveinn í Felli]

Thanks Gilles,

Nice to have such overview.
I can see that my friends at Stellarium are having a hell of a time 
porting GL-functions from QT4 -> QT5, probably 3D-stuff; does digiKam 
use any GL-related 3D commands?

Best,
Sveinn í Felli
