It is Qt 4.8 based, there is clearly zero intention of remerging it. They changed the build system! There are lots of people seeking to repackage Qt's work, add their own spin (pittance of work) and then attempt to profit off of it as a discrete product. |

We switched the build system to autotools in order to get away from the brittle and complex bootstrap system that Qt must maintain.
With respect to your comment about 'a pittance of work' here are some current numbers from CopperSpice:

Since CopperSpice is an open source project released under the GPL & LGPL, we are not looking to profit from it nor can we. Now, if someone throws money at us, we certainly will not refuse. But we did this for the love of the game.
