[Qt-creator] Creator stability

[ext Raul Fernandes]

Hi,

as user of different IDEs, I don't understand why qtcreator is trying to
provide more advanced features (such as QML support) if more basic features
are not implement/working properly. Important point: how can the team adopts
qtcreator as main development environment if it is not even getting more
stable? Is there any continuous integration environment which provides
nighly builds so we can see also testing results?

Regards, Raul.
