Ugh "will qt continue to be supported? YES/NO" This is an annoyingly over-simplified question which has the obvious answer, yes (since its GPL... blah blah, KDE community would continue to.... blah blah, there are commercial users so Nokia would continue to... etc).
Since this is a QtCreator mailing list (and being an enthusiastic QtCreator user!), I'm a little worried about the future of QtCreator that having a great C/C++ IDE wont be such a priority for Nokia. As it is, QtCreator is one of the best IDE's on Linux (tried others and all too slow or unstable on large codebase), and I feel rather lucky to have an actively developed IDE, if development slows down to a token effort, so be it - but it would be disappointing to say the least. Also, if there are ways to support continued QtCreator development Id be interested to know.
