I'm looking forward to trying out version 11 of the Budgie Desktop (w/ qt6 and kde frameworks base / integration).

My hope is that it is lighter than Plasma and works well on smaller, memory constrained devices. Depending, may use it more broadly. Always kind of dug the minimalism.

I have a small script in Python that I and a few others use for specific purposes in IRC. I inherited the script, which was made using Gtk3 years ago. To integrate it more closely with the IRC program and make it available to other platforms besides Linux, I'm porting it to Qt6

I'm very much an amateur in all of this, but I'm discovering Gtk3 is simpler to use and, while I can get some results in Qt6 I couldn't in Gtk3, it's proving to be a real headache.

The worst part is all of it is for an IRC program that is no longer being developed and hasn't for a while. Python is the only language I feel comfortable in. Eventually we'll need to switch IRC programs, but I'm limping this along until another one offers Python scripting support.

I do enjoy learning more about the language though, this has only ever been a hobby for me.

Qt6.10.3 is released to the Haiku public now (64bit and 32bit)! This brings us up to current status on Qt6.
After having spend a few years I guess on updating this from 6.8.0 up to 6.11.0 (last one still has some issues) it was time to release the latest stable here.

I hope you enjoy the update!
