I did not say that we *cannot* continue with Qt. What I say is that it gets more painful and difficult. For our current projects there are no options anyway.
But there may be projects in the future at other companies where I will get asked again "What would do you think about Qt?". And I will need to say: "Years ago I had the impression that quantity and quality are at an optimal balance but this changed in my opinion". What a pity. However if enterprise support actually improves this then at least for mid-size and bigger companies this not a problem. I started using Qt with 4.0.0 and pretty much fell in love with it... seems my cutie is letting itself go ;-) -- Kind Regards Bernhard Lindner > Von: interest-bounces+private=bernhard-lindner...@qt-project.org > [mailto:interest-bounces+private=bernhard-lindner...@qt-project.org] Im > Auftrag von m...@rpzdesign.com > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 11.
