This doesn't sound right... Qt apps and stock GTK+ apps should Just Work
in both Maemo 6 and MeeGo 1.0. The issue, as I understand it, is that
Hildon & "Nokia GTK+" apps developed against Maemo 5 currently have no
migration path to Maemo 6/MeeGo.

In the context, it seems like the task should be "Ensuring that Maemo 5
apps work well with upstream GTK+"?
