Hi, for the sake of simplicity, and to be able to use a vanilla Qt Creator on any platform (Win, Mac, Linux), I have created a surrogate kit for Qt Creator that can be used to build and run programs remotely on a Mer device, virtual machine, or chroot. The surrogates for qmake, make, and g++ (and someday gdb) connect to the Mer environment via a developer ssh key that needs to be authorized on the Mer host. Once this has been setup, the surrogates work equally well on Windows (with MinGW), Mac OS, and Linux. They're just bash scripts.
Just in case, someone is interested.

Mainly you see a fork because it's not "finished" and in general the Qt project obviously won't merge a partial solution. The approach we're taking is the same as any normal downstream: fork, work, rebase with HEAD on a regular basis, when 'done' request inclusion upstream, make any changes asked for, get accepted upstream. What you are seeing is us working in the open. In the future we expect the plugin will just be part of the main QtCreator tree.
