Good to have you back - I hope the treatment has helped.

By then 6.3.0 shall be out and 6.3.x releases shall be the live version
of Qt.  The 6.2.x branch shall close - yet live on, behind closed doors,
as a commercial-only LTS branch, that'll only show up in public after a
year's delay (as 5.15.4 has just done, this LTS policy having been
adopted at 5.15) but this is of limited interest to the Free Software
community.  So 6.2.4 shall be the last free 6.2 release.

Good luck - and rest assured that Qt shall remain available, with
regular fresh releases, as ever,
