If someone submits a slave port like the qt23-static. I'll look at it.
libh seems to be the only port, that needs a static library. But if you
are seriously planning to move to qt3, a static version should be added. =

libh seems to be the only port that uses tvision.
If your patches are fixing the build on 5.0 and are not breaking the port=

I was just asking, since you are the only people that use the port, you pro=
bably
want to review patches to the port.

Sorry, didn't know that. I'll hide under my stone again.
But i would prefer using tvision because of the license.
