Hi Matilainen,

thanks for such good news.
Is there also a release date for 4.8.1 available?

Best Regards

It is on our agenda to make the path of Qt apps into the App Store as easy as possible, and all related patches will of course be submitted for merging into the LGPL release, so any patches related to the App Store won't be limited to the commercial version only. We will submit our changes for both 4.8.1 and 5.0, but 4.8.1 currently has a priority for us, as that release will happen sooner.

Chris Meyer's patches of course have a large part in this, as they tackle some of the most important problems; I have been in contact with Chris about the App Store issues, and will continue working with him to get them sorted out.
