  Erik, that patch is for QT/Embedded, not for OPIE itself. I'm
currently working and cleaning up patchset used in OE.dev, with
ultimate aim to have single, machine-independent package for qte and
set of guidelines for new machine to be added to OPIE without need to
create adhoc patches.


  But I'm glad that you handle patches proactively - I'll keep
submitting any patches I produce, and will also review and submit any
other OPIE patches used by OE.dev. I'm glad that there's the aim of
making new OPIE release, and actually, I have something in mind
regarding supporting interim subreleases for individual apps/libs.
I'll send RFC regarding this later.

  Well, and I'd like to take chance to invite other gentlemen who, as
I know, have pending patches for OPIE:

  Kristoffer, please submit your patches to support jornadas 7xx.

  Goxboxlive, please submit htcuniversal BT/etc. patches you have.
