Sounds good to me.

We'll also need some days past the feature free to get the remaining changes to the configuration system merged.

Cheers,
Lars

Hi,

I totally support Kai's request.

On the upside: The qtlocation build is fixed :)

Hi,

Unfortunately, we're having great difficulties to get patches integrated into Qt WebEngine in the last days, right now due to qtlocation not compiling (QTBUG-55229). Unless the situation resolves itself over the weekend, I'd like to ask for an exception for getting features into 5.8 for Qt WebEngine even after Monday morning.

The features still waiting to get merged are
Printing: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/162928/ and following
Printing of CSS backgrounds: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/167484/
Support for certificate transparency: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/167275/
Support for custom QML context menu/ dialogs: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/162263/, https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/165731/
Support for Qt Quick 2 Controls dialogs: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/162262/

Regards

Kai
