Hi, I just read the recent 2013-08-14 LWN article: http://lwn.net/Articles/562856/ in particular regarding Clutter, a scene-graph canvas, and the calls over the years to merge Clutter with GTK.
This motivated me to read the linked wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scene_graph and, in particular, to add the section "Scene graphs in user interfaces": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scene_graph#Scene_graphs_in_user_interfaces which is currently primarily a list of various canvas libraries. My hope is to raise awareness of the alternatives, to make it easy for future canvas and UI scene-graph hackers to appraise themselves of what's already available. Of note to my mind is Evas: http://docs.enlightenment.org/auto/evas/ which appears surprisingly simple in its API, yet enough for UI building, and is a scene-graph with all sorts of benefits that entails, and given the design decisions made with Evas in particular. I hope the starting list of canvas's at wikipedia is useful. Dunno if there's an appropriate QT -dev list to forward this email to, or if there might be some cross-project mutual interest between qt/gtk/evas.
