Hi Holger, I would say there is intent but nothing that could seriously be called a "plan" right now. With respect to specific tools, Jenkins has a bit of traction, because it is similar to the non-free tool we are currently using (Pulse) and it is also coincidentally being used in a few places within Nokia already. > Is there some kind of 'infrastructure' > team for the Qt project and what would be the place to discuss things. > There is a loosely defined team taking care of the existing CI and code review tool within Nokia. I didn't see any discussions yet about establishing a new team under the "Qt Project" umbrella, so I imagine the Nokia team will also act as the Qt Project team at least for a while. However there is a definite priority problem here, which could be avoided by a team with a bit more distance to Nokia. This list seems a fine place for discussions for now, all the relevant people are subscribed. > The other topic is platform specific results.E.g. on DirectFB I > might use the DirectFB image decoders, or for a specific product > use HW decoders that decode some pixels differently.

In that case, if they are really for a specific product, then I think they should not be provided with Qt, but rather with whatever scripts/packaging metadata/etc you are using to deploy Qt for that product; If they are generic enough to be usable for e.g. "any" DirectFB backend, then it may be appropriate to check them into the source tree, if they are fairly stable. If they're likely to be unstable, or they are very large, we don't have any good solution at the moment :( _______________________________________________ Qt5-feedback mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt.nokia.com/mailman/listinfo/qt5-feedback
