Hi, I see rising frustration about the lack of subjectively pressing features. This is understandable. However, let us try to find a positive approach to solve the issues.
Let me start out by explaining our view: In spite of "being Nokia" (more precisely: being part of it), a seemingly huge company, our team does not have infinite resources to spend on this project. While we gladly pick up feedback in an unbeaurocratic way if possible, there is a limit to what we can do in this respect, since we have to commit to our roadmap. This does, however, not mean that your features must remain unimplemented. You can always contribute, as numerous people have already done. And if you feel like you have any obstacles in your way while developing on Qt Creator, like a lack of class documentation (which probably is one of the most pressing problems right now for external contributions) or understanding general design principles, please talk about it. If you have a joint interest in a particular feature with other people on this list, please try and develop it together. Gitorious has awesome team functionality: http://blog.gitorious.org/2009/05/09/weve-made-a-few-changes/ Enabling contributions from _everyone_ is one of the foremost reasons why Creator is Open Source instead of just closed-source Freeware: Giving you the power to get involved, no matter what our internal agenda looks like. So please make use of it. We will happily assist with any serious effort into either improving documentation or getting started with implementing your desired functionality into Qt Creator. If you have any questions, please follow up on this mail. Cheers, Daniel PS: While this mail is a follow-up to many other threads revolving around feature requests, lets not discuss specific requests here, unless you need help setting up an effort. -- Daniel Molkentin, Software Engineer, Nokia, Qt Development Frameworks Rudower Chaussee 13, DE-12489 Berlin website: http://qt.nokia.com _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
