I don't think that there will be much progress after 4.0 release. I'll
maybe only port some really needed code back to 3.3 (if this is
possible) and try to get 4.0 compile with msvc & borland. There wasn't
much response on our binary 3.3 relases and also noone except me seems
to have time to fix bugs nor someone will get a working site on
qtwin.sf.net. It's a little bit disappointing  ...
