...PyQt is now the default Qt binding, as some users were experiencing stability problems with spyder... http://continuum.io/blog/anaconda-2-released
I feel like claims that Anaconda is completely free now are false https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/ Why am I upset about it? With so much buzz and marketing power that Continuum delivers, I expected guys to be active somehow in the open source part of the ecosystem and pay attention at the values of the project that are not only at the top of their IDE list http://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/ide_integration.html but also important enough to break dozens (hundreds?) internal application. That's why a major version change. I am not saying that everybody here wants non-restricted Qt bindings on Windows. People usually don't care, but after MS killed Nokia, so that there is no PySide team anymore, I'd expect a company like Continuum to be able to calculate the impact made and provide at least some support value back to PySide project. Reporting bugs at minimum. It is just my personal rant, but... Getting the best out of open source projects, wrapping them in package and marketing it at a conferences. This is not what you expect from a scientific company that holds the keys to open source, algorithms and processing. You expect them to be on a edge of researching the economy, the system that powers it - the ecosystem - to make sure that useful agents survive, not die. You expect them to be leaders that explain the trends, how the stuff works, to provide some hope for this darkness. And what you see from the ecosystem point of view? Just another parasite trying to survive in this "economy". Just to make clean about the matter. I am sitting right now trying to code some stuff for the money that will be plenty enough for food or buying new clothes, I see people quitting social science, biology, neural networks labs just to earn cash and write dumb games or join outsourcing business (because, well, it is boring for US developers to write and maintain code for their own products). My "quality of life" directly depends on the amount of people involved in research jobs, because I hope that one day it will be possible to find a solution for my personal issue. Hoped. If money always kills the game, it is pointless for me to continue in the open source race, because I will never be able to afford the costs of the outcome as I am not as smart as others to earn some. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group.
