For me +1 to set Qt 4.8 as a minimum for next release of QGIS.... Qt<br>
4.8.0 is now nearly two years old - seems like distributions have had<br>
enough time to get the packages ready.<br></blockquote><div><br><div>When this was last discussed [0] (over a year ago, and to no conclusion), the lowest version for Qt, on a production platform providing QGIS, was 4.5, but there were third-party updates for those platforms even then.<br>
<br></div>+1 for at least Qt 4.6 as the new minimum. However, with some more research, we may find 4.7, or even 4.8, reasonable.<br><br></div><div>On the Mac side of things, I think William has routinely shipped QGIS with the most recent stable version of Qt 4 at the time. The nightly is also built that way. Currently on Mac OS X 10.6-9 this would be Qt 4.8.5.<br>

It would be nice to finally be able to use the new features (e.g. QML<br>
- and have qgis_qml library with QML canvas, legend...)<br></blockquote><div><br></div>+1 for this. In fact, I think it is very important to investigate what moving to an entire QGIS GUI built upon QML would take (or if it is even possible, yet). And personally, I see Digia focusing most of its energy in QML, though I think Qt Wdigets have at least a good 5-year "shelf life." Side note: new Ubuntu Touch OS (to be installable on many Android tablets) runs QML natively for its GUI [2].<br>
