Don't know - I haven't Qt 3.3 yet. Anyway, relying on Qt 3.3 would mean tha=

Knowit works only on KDE-CVS. I prefer to preserve support even for KDE 3.1=

Upgrade to Qt XML can be considered, when Qt 3.3 becomes standard, which=20
probably would take some months are even a year.

I am not sure. There are two options:
* release 0.10 as 1.0 (stable) and begin major rewrite as 2.0pre
* release 0.10 as last stable and begin major rewrite as 1.0alpha

What do you think?

My idea is to release 1.0 with new file format (and perhaps some new=20
features), gradually adding other features.
