- Qt Contributors Day, wikis and the contribution process
It’s impossible to do every single thing perfectly when opening up the whole development of Qt. Hence the Qt contribution process has to be improved, helping everyone to make Qt even better. I’ll highlight some the suggestions brought up at Qt Contribution Days. Here is my take on a Troll approach on how to achieve [...]

The year of 2011 ends on a very positive note. The interest in Qt from the software development community is bigger than ever before, allow me to explain.

- Five unique keynotes highlight day two of Qt Developer Days
It was a first. Jono Bacon’s joke about early Linux user interfaces resembling “Kim Kardashian without makeup” was almost certainly the first ever reference to Ms Kardashian in a Qt keynote.

Nokia continua sa fie de partea dezvoltatorilor sai
Cu toate ca in ultimul an Nokia a luat anumite decizi, zic eu stranii (trecerea la WP7, “ingroparea” MeeGo), continua sa fie compania cea mai apropiata de dezvoltatori sai.
Pentru a intari cele spuse mai sus, Nokia a deciz sa inmaneze dezvoltatorilor sai un numar de telefoane fara precedent pana acuma in istoria companiei. Este vorba de nici mai mult nici mai putin de 25.000 de telefoane Nokia Lumnia 800 si 710.
Cum se poate primi unul din aceste telefoane?
- Daca detii un Nokia E7, primit in luna februarie, perioada in care s-a anuntat noua strategie Nokia, vei primi garantat unul din aceste telefoane fara nici o cere speciala.
- Daca esti deja in programul Nokia Developer Champion sau Nokia Developer Launchpad, vei primi in curand un email in care ti se va explica cum poti intra in posesia unuia din telefoane.
- Daca sunteti nou in comunitatea Nokia Developers, problema devine mai delicata, iar pentru a intra in posesia unia dintre telefoane e necesar sa participati la unul din evenimentele Nokia.
Dupa obtinerea unui telefon, urmeaza devoltarea de aplicatii pentru platforma Windows Mobile, fapt ingreunat in acest moment deoarece Romania nu este inclusa in programul Microsoft App Hub, magazinul Microsoft unde se posteaza aplicatiile pentru Windows Mobile 7+.

Nokia Qt SDK 1.1.4 a fost lansat
Noul SDK de la Nokia si Digia a fost lansat.
Este vorba de Qt SDK 1.1.4, care doreste sa aduca imbunatatiri majore in ceea ce priveste stabilitatea, performantele si functionalitatea.
Noul SDK aduce pe langa imbunatarile pentru MeeGo, aduce in cele din urma si Qt 4.7.4 Pentru Symbian ^3/Anna/Belle.
Prin acesasta lansare Nokia reuseste sa aduca Qt mai aproape de Sistemul de operare Symbian actual (Belle), prin UI, afisarea tastaturii pe jumatate de ecran si lucrul cu modul grafic al acestuia. Totodata aduce si noile componente QML versiuna 1.1 care ajuta la o dezvoltare mult mai usoara si rapida pe noile telefoane Symbian.
