Hi,
I would like to mention that there is a significant amount of relatively
simple thing to fix in ktechlab 0.3 codebase: the current codebase is
built with Qt4's Qt3 Support module, which is not available in Qt5. So,
for migrating to Qt5, it is needed to move away from the Qt3 Support
module. In a significant amount of cases, the only difference between Qt3
Support code and Qt4 is the changed name of a method or enum/class. Thus
these renames should be fairly simple to do, and the code should continue
work. Fixinig these minor API changes should be quite simple, and
beginners should be able to do it.
Of course there are cases when more complex fixes are needed, like
swapping out a class, when more effort and knowledge is needed. In my
opinion these "hard" fixes should be postponed for now.
Best regards,
Zoltan
