Hi all.

Yes, it would be very nice to include it as an add-on to Qt. We spent a 
lot of time improving this module, tried to meet the differing opinions. 
We need help and advice from more people who are interested in the 
development of this addon. In principle, the bulk of the work has been 
done. We are very interested in community opinion about the chances of 
this event for the integration QtSerialPort to Qt, criticism and so forth.

Please let us know your opinion and maybe your help.

Best regards,
Denis Shienkov
