I've asked the creator of QtLua about the activity of his project and
here is his answer:

"I'am using this project and add new features as needed for my use.
The library is in a stable state. I'am currently using QtLua 1.2.1 with
Qt 4.7.1. You are right, I have to update the Qt version on the website.

Note that QtLua code does not need update on new Qt4 release as it's
not a binding. It relies on Qt meta-object system to list QObjects
members at run-time and it doesn't aim at wrapping the whole Qt API.

I'am fixing bugs when they are reported."

I'm feeling confident to use QtLua now. Thanks!
