This is _really_ disappointing news. I'd be happy to see qmake go, now this. We (at work, commercial Qt license) recently ported a rather big build system to Qbs, replacing qmake and scons. We now have good IDE integration for all our projects in QtCreator, both the Qt-based applications as well as pure C/C++-based projects for desktop, embedded Linux and "bare metal" embedded. We spent some time debugging and reporting/fixing bugs in Qbs too. Now with Qbs 1.12.0 we're having good and stable results. Incremental builds are _very_ fast. Project files are easy to set up, read and extend, even with custom code generation rules, things we never were able to do with (even undocumented) qmake. It's really impressive. Well I guess all that was for nothing, let's rewrite the build system next year again, and make really sure not to embrace new Qt technologies so fast next time. Cheers, Ola
