Re: [Development] Proposal: Remove QML from Qt's code base (OR: Should it be a requirement that Qt Modules are interoperable?)
d3fault, after seeing all your posts in this list it is clear that your aim might be well aimed but is more obstructive than constructive. There is no lack of unavoidable obstacles in the road to Qt 5 launch and we really don't need any more - especially if they can be avoided. Can I ask you to postpone your arguments in this [Development] list against QML and the Qt 5 plans until 5.0 is out? In the meantime you can join the team pushing further Qt Widgets (or whatever modules you want to contribute to), you can test your preferred areas of Qt 5 and provide feedback and bugfixes. You can also use the DevNet forum to air any thoughts and willingness to discuss with peers. To all the rest: can I ask you to stop feeding discussions not helping the Qt 5 release? Really, given the current circumstances it's not easy to get it out. The future of Qt is being decided these days through many bfactors and one that we can control is to have a good release published. Without that release achieved, the rest of discussions about the future are rather pointless, or at least clearly not as relevant. We need all your help focused on the Qt 5 release, or at least not obstructing those of us doing our best putting a visible milestone to the hard work done in the past 1-2 years. Thank you very much for your understanding. -- Quim Gil ___ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
[Development] Names of speakers for Qt CS videos
Hi, we are producing the videos of the Qt Contributors Summit and we need URGENTLY the names of all the speakers taking part in recorded sessions at the Galerie room. This includes everybody sitting in a panel or doing a demo. Please add the names to the wiki page program at http://qt-project.org/groups/qt-contributors-summit-2012/wiki/Program Thank you!

[Development] FW: [Marketing] Planning Qt 5 launch
Below you can find the email just sent to the [Marketing] list to begin the planning of the Qt 5 launch. If you want to contribute with demos, code examples and other materials please join that list. We won't be cross-posting here (except for exceptional exceptions). :) http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing *** Hi, By the launch of Qt 5 we hope to see a great collection of videos, demos, example applications, code samples and tutorials that all focus on what we see as being the key technical benefits of Qt 5. Everybody is encouraged to join the effort, contributing directly or aligning your own activities. Together with Lars Knoll and Daniel Kihlberg, we have come up with this proposed list of key technical benefits of Qt 5 (in order of importance, example keywords added): 1. Graphics features performance, easy to develop and deploy - OpenGL, Wayland, particles shaders, effects, 3D... 2. Performance on constrained hardware - mobile, embedded, Raspberry Pi... 3. Cross-platform easier to port to new platforms - Qt Platform Abstraction, QNX, RTOS, non-reference platforms... 4. Qt and HTML5 - Qt WebKit, Web development, JavaScript, JSON, hybrid, PhoneGap, JQuery Mobile... 5. Qt's ease of use - QML, Qt Creator, emulator, packaging, deployment on device, documentation, community commercial support... 6. Porting and compatibility from Qt 4 to Qt 5 - Your current code recompiled should just work, Run the script and you are done... As you can see, this is a consolidation of the topics we already highlighted in the Alpha release. In order to have a crisp and focused message on Qt 5 launch day, the announcement and materials promoted will hav a focus on these topics. If you have something in mind or in your hands that can contribute to this, please let us know. Your suggestions and proposals are welcome! Keep an eye on http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-5-release-marketing and the [Marketing] list to follow the progress and get involved. Next steps include the agreement on the list of demos and tutorials we want to assure by the Qt 5 launch day. -- Quim ___ Marketing mailing list market...@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing ___ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development

Re: [Development] Demos, examples, docs etc for Alpha release
(Sorry for top-posting from this web client) Thank you for the list of modules. Can I do the following changes to the wiki? 1. Move the list of modules at http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt_5.0#66036ddf6d03c9ce1fc742741417f128 to two new pages: - Qt Essential Modules - Qt Add-on Modules Reasoning: the are not roadmap anymore and they are not even 5 exclusive. They are simply Qt modules in trunk. This way it's easier to link to them from other pages (e.g. Alpha release notes) without having to drag the whole Qt 5 Roadmap content. 2. Mark somehow (e.g. different background color) the modules available in the alpha release. Reasoning: to have a clear idea of the status of those modules. 3. Try to improve the names and descriptions of each module. Reasoning: now it's confusing. For instance, is qtjsbackend = V8 JavaScript engine? 4. Link each module to whatever landing page there is available somewhere in the wiki, if available. Reasoning: now only the insiders can bridge that list with whatever info is somewhere else. -- Quim From: Storm-Olsen Marius (Nokia-MP/Austin) Sent: Monday, March 12, 2012 9:05 PM To: Gil Quim (Nokia-DXM/SiliconValley) Cc: development@qt-project.org; Hausmann Simon (Nokia-MP/Oslo) Subject: Re: [Development] Demos, examples, docs etc for Alpha release On 12/03/2012 18:10, ext Quim Gil wrote: Also, a basic question: where can someone find the actual list of Essential and Add-on modules that will be included in the Alpha?

And how we promote them best in this Alpha release. All corners of the Qt Project are encouraged to find and contribute some spice to the release day. Can the MediaHub showcase some gerat visual features in an integrated way? Is someone making the most of the new QPA with some port? Is there some HTML5 beauty to show thanks to the new QtWebKit2?

[Development] Who does what in the Qt Project
Since we are a meritocratic organization it is important to know who does what. Currently it is difficult (if not impossible?) to know the whole picture. Please help mapping everybody with an official Qt Project role at https://wiki.qt-project.org/Who_does_what and linked pages. Maintainers: I was glad to discover today that https://wiki.qt-project.org/Maintainers has been offering the full details in plain text for a couple of weeks. Thank you! Ideally names would be linked to profiles (should we use the wiki profiles or do we have a better alternative?). Approvers: is there a way to know who is an approver? It would be also useful to have a rough idea of what approvers are interested in a specific component. And link to profile again. What about the infrastructure? Marius Storm-Olsen seems to have the only official role. It would be useful to map all the areas and roles under that critical piece of the Qt project, with the same level of detail than the software maintainers. And then, what about all the rest? Under https://wiki.qt-project.org/The_Qt_Governance_Model#Contributors you can find some roles implicitly mentioned that would lead to think we have people in charge of roadmap, QA, documentation, releases, design, events, community, support... The maintainers list has already empty spots clearly identified in yellow as Needs Maintainer. It would be useful to have identified empty spots the Qt Project wants to see filled. Now it is difficult to know what is being covered (but undocumented) from what is completely missing (but desired). -- Quim ___ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
Re: [Development] Qt 5 Raspberry Pi device program
Hi Mark, Where or how can we found out more about Taku? Please give us a few more days to release everything and explain it at Dev Days and the wiki. Also note that the contributors of this tiny project are enjoying some Thanksgiving rest during the rest of the week. In any case don't hold your breath for Taku: it's just a collection of upstream packages required to run Qt 5 on top of the hardware. But we are glad that you ask since it will surely welcome more expertise in order to get the plumbing below Qt well fixed. PS: 28 developers with a proposal already listed at http://wiki.qt-project.org/Qt_RaspberryPi/Device_program ! -- Quim ___ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
