Dear Qt friends, This is a short mail to give an update about the VLC community and its use of Qt. It was suggested at FOSDEM to send info here, so I comply ;)
I don't know actually know what you can do about those infos, but here there are anyway :) So, VLC media player from VideoLAN moved to Qt platform, almost 5 years ago, with a first public release in September 2008 (v0.9.2). It is using QtCore and QtGui, on Linux and Win32. Mac still has its Cocoa GUI. The last major release, 1.1.0, was out in June 2010. It has been followed by 13 minor releases. The total number of downloads, including updates, since that date, is 474 million. And 425 million of those are the Win32 version, using Qt. Since this counts people multiple time, when they update, I also made a count on a single version, since the last minor release of VLC: 1.1.11. Since mid-July, in a bit over 6 months, we've seen 165 million downloads of VLC 1.1.11 on win32, using Qt 4.7.2. This is the end of 1.1.x though, since we will release 2.0.0 soon... I hope the best for the Qt future, -- Jean-Baptiste Kempf http://www.jbkempf.com/ - +33 672 704 734 Sent from my Electronic Device _______________________________________________ Marketing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing
