[Qt-interest] Qt for the iPad?

[Jason H]

Because we both love Qt. And you want it to be on the iPhone just as much as anyone else. "Search your feelings, you *know* it to be true!"

And we know you/Qt Frameworks is not stupid. It can't ever be a bad thing to have users clamoring for your product in more places :-)  But sometimes you have to say no, because there are more important things that resources need to be allocated to. We don't know those things, or the internal agenda. We just know what we want, and are being vocal about it.

I do thank you for responding and taking this seriously, and providing the input that you have. Indeed you are absolutely correct, Qt Frameworks should get a blessing from Apple before making any kind of resource commitment (going fwd without one would be stupid, just like Adobe has now wasted their resources on a useless iPhone Flash compiler) , and none of us here can provide that assurance. But I think the take away from all this is there is significant interest from your users, and that can feed into the future decisions. 

Again, thanks for taking my feeble statistics seriously and chiming in. I now consider this thread closed (until someone joins the list and asks again next week!)

Anyway, I don't know why I am still replying to this thread.
