Actually Qt has a huge user base in Texas. We even had mini Qt DevDays in Houston a few years back. Much of the usage is because Oil&Gas is deep into Qt across the board. Its Traditional vs cutting edge: desktop, not devices. C++ Qt, not cutting edge QML, Commercial, not LGPL. Some are still migrating off Tk, Motif and MFC to Qt with millions of lines of code. So how to tap these Qt users and engage them to participate is a challenge, especially when your interests differ. What they are doing could be considered part of the the larger visualization field which also includes Qt as defacto standard in Medical Imaging research (which is much more open and accessible). Visualization needs traditionally relate to huge datasets, performance (GPU rendering) and OpenGL wrapping with Qt on the desktop- but might open future opportunities for Qt in mobile visualization. Im brainstorming about ways to engage the visualization 'communities' and other industries that have broad Qt commonalities but might also be competitors. They are treasure troves of knowledge stuck in corporate silos. If anyone has ideas please share. Best Regards, -Adam
