[Development] Suggested platforms for CI, packaging and RTA in Qt 5.3

[Sarajärvi Tony]

Hi all!

We'd like to open a discussion about the platforms used in the CI, packaging (creates the installer binaries) and release test automation. Do note, that this list isn't the "supported platform" -list. This is a subset of that trying to achieve a broad coverage of different platforms and configurations.

Our goal is to use the latest platforms, commonly used platforms, platforms with extended support and a broad variety of windowing systems.

The current suggestion is public now and it's located here:  http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt_5_3_CI_packaging_RTA_environments

Feel free to start commenting.

Our plan to start using RedHat is based on further widening the support for our installers. It's still a trial, and we don't know if we are going to succeed.

Regards,
-Tony
