[PySide] Weekly update 26.04.2018

[Cristián Maureira-Fredes]

Hello all,

here is the update from last week's meeting:


A few issues with the CI are still blocking the integration
in a couple of branches. Particularly, there were some issues
with 5.11 and 5.6. But 5.9 is working, which is the most active
branch at the moment.

The snapshot tool for Windows is not working,
but the change is awaiting to be merge once the CI is 
fully operational. Only Linux and macOS snapshots
are being generated at the moment.
We have not started to generate wheels for Windows 32bits
but it's in our planning.

We encourage the community to participate in expanding
the wiki pages, adding tutorials, examples, translating, etc.
Feedback is also welcome.

A set of bugs and changes were merged on 5.9
including a refactor of the setup.py that will help us to better
maintain the code and also improves the readability,
adding missing classes, flags, fixing methods,  addressing
WebEngine issues, etc.

We are trying to integrate the Shiboken's and ApiExtractor's
documentation into the official PySide2 API docs.

The heap types changes are almost ready,
and we expect to merge the set of patches soon.

Designers are already working on a Qt for Python image,
so we can have a proper logo and icon.

Cheers
