That's a link to an email from Simon. I can't find my own answer, but it's in 
the same thread.

My argument was that there's a difference in philosophy. CopperSpice is trying 
to push the envelope of what can be done with C++11, at the cost of leaving a 
lot of compilers and users behind. In fact, their source code cannot be 
compiled even with Microsoft Visual Studio 2015, the latest version. And it's 
entirely source-incompatible with the existing codebase, so it's a pain for 
people to migrate.

Qt is a lot more conservative. Even the C++11 change I've been talking about 
here isn't wholesale. We will require a subset of the C++11 core language 
features and almost none of the C++11 Standard Library features, corresponding 
to the intersection of the GCC 4.7, Clang 3.3 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 
support.

Which is equivalent to the VS2012 support. Thanks Microsoft.
