Being curious especially regarding MS-Windows and *far* from being
Qt/KDE advocate, i was wondering from a technological point of view
why for C++ based (right, isn't it?) StarOffice, Sun/Ex-StarDivision
didn't focus on Qt which is already a very advanced, C++ based, cross
platform toolkit?  Wouldn't that have been a natural choice?
