Hi,

it is true, that since Windows CE 6 the Standard SDK has been deprecated 
unfortunately. So in case you want to use Qt with a recently created SDK 
basing on version 6, you can follow these steps mentioned in the 
documentation:
http://pepper.troll.no/ceprereleases/doc/windowsce-customization.html

If your system has the same configuration like it had with Windows CE 5, 
you can easily use the wince60standard-armv4i-msvc2005 mkspecs and apply 
them to your needs. It should build fine then.

Please tell us about any issues/success you have.
