Over the last couple of months (since long before 0.10 was released) we’ve been working on the Qt4 port of Psi, working towards the 0.11 release. It’s pretty usable on a day-to-day basis now and so I’m releasing a first beta release (note that this is not the test1 release candidate).

Those interested in the cutting edge and helping is towards 0.11 with testing, please grab the appropriate file from http://psi-im.org/files/beta/ and start reporting bugs to the mailing list(and ideally fixing them too :)). Build instructions are available at http://psi-im.org/wiki/Build_Instructions_Qt4

Please consider this a preview release, several things aren’t finished yet (most notably advanced tab actions like drag and drop, and gpg functions) and there are glitches with some of what we’ve done so far (and more glitches in Qt4 itself which is still rather young).

A list of known issues can be found in the wiki at http://psi-im.org/wiki/Qt4_Issues

We’re currently working hard in parallel to try and get both 0.11 and the subsequent 0.12 completed and ready for you as soon as possible, so please feel free to muck in in any way you can.
