Hi, a note to a wide audience taking http://community.kde.org/Akademy/2012/QtQuick and the wording "Qt Quick 2" as an excuse.
First, in order to keep some sanity and clarity it is good to avoid version numbers or even plain numbers in names of modules and technologies to wide audiences, apart from "Qt 5" or "Qt 4.8" etc. "Qt Quick 2", "QtWebKit2" and other combinations make sense in technical discussions between people in the know really needing clarity on these meaningful numbers, but let's drop them for generic use. As an example: "Qt 5 and Qt Quick" would be better for the name of a training.... but keep reading. Second, in order to keep some sanity and clarity in programming languages it is good to refer directly to C++, QML and Javascript. "Qt Quick" is now the name of a module, different than Qt QML, which is another module. "Qt Quick" should only be used when referring to the module. "Qt apps" can be programmed with C++, QML, Javascript or a combination of all. "Qt Quick apps" is not valid anymore. "Qt apps" referring only to C++ applications is not correct (and probably it never was). Therefore the absolutely correct combinations for the training would be - "QML programming for Qt 5" - "Qt 5 and QML programming" - "QML in Qt 5" - "Qt 5 and QML"... Sorry for the long explanation and I hope you all agree that the final result is clear and much better. Please use this nomenclature in any sessions or materials. Qt CS is a first good opportunity to put these principles in action. -- Quim _______________________________________________ Marketing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing
