Qt6 sub-forum?
-
When Qt WASM first came out I suggested making a dedicated Qt for WebAssembly sub-forum, and that seemed to go well.
I wonder whether you people might consider a Qt 6 sub-forum right now? It would be specifically for, well... Qt 6 questions. Which have started sprouting in the last couple of days. All those "I can't get it to compile/This used to work but doesn't seem to now/Wtf has that module gone" questions. It would group all the specifically Qt 6 questions together, and allow those folks adopting it to see who else and how others are faring/problems run into.
If you do decide to introduce this, https://www.qt.io/blog/add-on-support-in-qt-6.0-and-beyond would make a good, first sticky, before people realize their required add-on isn't available yet, and https://wiki.qt.io/New_Features_in_Qt_6.0 generally.
Though I realize you might not want to do this, at a future date when 6 is adopted by many these posts won't belong in their own sub-forum. But it would be useful for some time. @AndyS ?

And this is now done:

Is the sticky for it. If anyone has anything else to add to that I can add it in np.

It is a reasonable idea, and I am open to the suggestion too, what do others think on this?

I can always move the posts afterwards once the sub-forum is closed so its not confusing later on. But I see the appeal of having it separate for now.

If we can easily move all the subforum's posts back to the "main" forum when Qt 6 is mainstream, then having a dedicated subforum now would be very useful.

I actually think the Qt6 Subforum should be a thing until Qt6.2 when (supposedly) all modules are added and its on paar with Qt5

That was my thinking too. I will set one up shortly.

@AndyS
Make it mandatory for noobs to read the sticky before posting in that forum --- put in a quiz-question-password or something... ;-)@JonB said:

Like a captcha - without compiling it say what's the output of this program: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Obfuscated_C_Code_Contest#Akari :D
