Another option would be to build Qt Creator 3.0 for Windows using desktop OpenGL and have an option in the installer to install the Mesa LLVMpipe software renderer. I have written some instructions for cross compiling Mesa for Windows here: http://qt-project.org/wiki/Cross-compiling-Mesa-for-Windows I think even if Qt will still support Windows XP (as a deployment platform) it is completely fine if the pre-built Qt Creator packages do not. At least I don’t think we should at this point start investing a lot of time on this. Of course if someone writes down instructions on how one can build Qt Creator even for Windows XP somewhere in our wiki (or maybe even extending/fixing the README in Qt Creator’s sources), that’d be a perfectly welcome addition ;) My 2 1/2 cents, I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but in case not: My understanding is that both firefox and chrome are now using ANGLE on Windows XP, but have a blacklist of some kind and refuse to run/work against the older (broken) display drivers. (info came from http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=72975 ) I don't know if there's some reason this approach wouldn't work for Qt.

You're a member of the Qt Project if you want to be a member. Just start doing work and you can consider yourself a member :-) Okay, fair point, thanks :-) I've gone ahead and added that bug to the known issues page, but shall take no offence if anyone thinks it was inappropriate and wants to remove/edit my additions!
