<div class="">One thing to keep in mind: The new text engine will be potentially helpful in countries that may not be able to afford an upgrade to computers that run anything but Windows XP, and those computers may not even be connected to the internet.</div>

<div class="">Despite Jean not wanting to have the next version require Qt5.7 I'm fine with it as well as C++11. Basically, I would not stop feature development because of this. I'm fine if we drop XP support and older distros of Linux and older OSX.</div>
<div class=""> </div>
<div class="">Anyway, go for it with C++11.</div>

Hi,<br class="">
<br class="">
Qt 5.7 is currently not provided by distros, especially Ubuntu 16.04 and al. which still<br class="">
use Qt 5.5.x. Currently I also need to keep using Qt 5.6.x for providing Windows XP<br class="">
support. So i'm currently firmly against requiring Qt 5.7 and even 5.6. Qt 5.5.x would be ok.<br class="">
