Comments on: Qt 4 Maemo: the new experience. http://www.gnuton.org/blog/2008/07/qt-4-maemo-the-new-experience/ A little blog of a little dreamer Tue, 06 Jan 2009 12:19:19 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Marius Vollmer http://www.gnuton.org/blog/2008/07/qt-4-maemo-the-new-experience/comment-page-1/#comment-95 Marius Vollmer Tue, 29 Jul 2008 15:25:26 +0000 http://www.gnuton.org/blog/?p=237#comment-95 Well done! I am especially happy that you did the right thing with the packaging and didn't put moc into a stupid devkit or other such nonsense. I am a bit worried, though, about the fact that Qt4 seems to include its own copies of an ungodly number of , slightly modified, 3rd party libraries, like WebKit, FreeType and SQLite. That's not so nice in terms of maintenance. But that's of course inherited from Qt4 itself. Well done!

I guess this project will attract many new people.. and probably someone of them can port pyQt4 in maemo! ;) I trust in the community power! :P The port of Qt is still in progress, there are a lot of things to do... but it´s usable! ;) @Urho

Does the fullscreen button work now as well? I really have to try it out soon. Oh, by the way, any chance of you also doing the pyqt4 bindings for us python lovers? Keep up the great work!

But... where does the image on the top come from? The Maemo and Nokia (trademarked) logos give it an appearance of official stuff when it is not. Even if you are now working inside Nokia for this. I know you have only good intentions, but please note the confusion you might generate by giving an official look to something that is at the end a maemo.org community project (and a very good one). Thank you for your understanding! Excellent work!
