Hi,
I've not managed to catch the right people on IRC, but one thing to
watch with the IOS port is that it doesn't ship openssl (which has
been deprecated on macos for a while). This means that one of the
following will need to be done:
1) qt could include it
2) qt apps could ship it themselves
3) adding support for the macos/ios crypto library
Option 1 is tricky legally. Option 2 would mean that apps would be
bigger. Option 3 is a lot of work, but might be needed for macos
anyway in future when apple finally remove the ancient version of
openssl they ship now.
Cheers
Rich.
