I believe it is solid now.
We got CI/tests running on linux, macos, windows
with various/latest Qt, gcc, clang, msvc versions.

The project author is also the maintainer of the Qt moc,
so I would expect Verdigris be supported and up-to-date
with Qt internal APIs.

No, I don't think I could find them yet (for example in Debian).
I am hoping to use Verdigris for scram[1] (debian science team),
but carrying/maintaining the source myself is not appealing.
It would be easier to adopt
if Verdigris gets packaged in tandem w/ Qt in Debian.
