Hi, Since there hasn't been strong objections against the list I updated the page (starting with a more general note that Windows, Linux and Mac OS X are the supported platforms, as Thiago suggested) : http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-5 . That doesn't mean though that we can't extend it further

Win8 support would be nice to add, but please do not drop WinXP. MS may be dropping official, public support for WinXP in 2014; but it will still be around for a very long time. Ben Are you referring to XP for embedded? (which survives until 2016) I'd strongly advise anyone not to use a

Compiling on the target is very unusual, and slow. Crosscompiling + running tests on qemu looks like a better option IMHO. The ubuntu-arm, arch-arm community and the like would say the opposite (i.e. think of a powerful board like beagle). While scratchbox was also a cross-compilation
