Dear Yuriy,

At the GSI we are involved in the Qt-ROOT interfacing since one year, a full
functional interface is being developed and will be released very soon (Nov.
2001). This interface supports the full functionality of both ROOT and Qt.
It is being heavily tested even with ROOT threads (Go4 Project
"http:\\go4.gsi.de"). Some of the available functionalities are:

	1. No changes in Root or Qt are necessary to use this interface. 
	2. Full Root canvas functionality embedded in a QWidget
	3. Root Canvas can be integrated into a QWidget in the same manner
as any native QWidget
	4. Drag and Drop support for canvas and pads
	5. Open Inventor integration is supported
	6. Can be used in parallel to the ROOT native GUI (TGxx classes)
	7. QRootCanvas can be added to the Qt-Designer as a custom widget 
      	(QRootCanvas plugin is being developed to automate the integration
and to support the whole 			functionality of the Canvas
within the Qt designer)  
	8. The interface is tested and it works with ROOT >= 3.0 and Qt >=
2.3.0
	

If anybody is interested in this interface please contact the author Denis
Bertini (dbertini@gsi.de) or me. 


Regards,
Mohammad Al-Turany
