Could you be more specific about the OpenGL, do you have some
solutions in mind? I thought this project would be about using the
current rendering system and focusing on rewriting to qt plus
refactoring of the current code because that alone is  a lot of work
if you are not familiar with the current codebase. Better rendering
could be added later on. But I think Ondrej is open to suggestions.
