Hi Martin,
Just wanted to say thanks for all the work over the last years.
Good luck with writing that novel and whatever else you might come up with!
Cheers,
Lars

After 25 years using Qt (Qt license 0 at METIS), the last 13 of those years maintaining QDoc, first at Trolltech, then Nokia, then Digia, and now at The Qt Comany, I am about to become the first guy to retire from Trolltech, et al, because of old age (70 on Jan 14).
