[Qt-interest] What is likely to be in Qt 4.8?

[Jason H]

I've used Qt commercially at two previous jobs. Qt is very healthy on embedded 
systems. The phone stuff is just the latest fad for it. Qt performs well on 
limited hardware, and all but the lowest-level systems are C++ capable. I've 
also used it commercially to target desktop - Win and OSX. So though the WP7 
announcement is dissapointing (which by the way, only affects the 
top-of-the-line models) Qt has a life of its own outside of phones.

Thiago,

Sorry for continuing this, but one quick question for you then Thiago. You 
seem to be saying that 1) there exists and 2) you are aware of significant 
facts/proof that Nokia has good reason to continue to dedicate many 
resources to Qt and not let it die. Obviously, you cannot share those at 
this point. I'd be encouraged to at least hear you affirm that there are 
significant facts (from your personal perspective) that we developers 
aren't aware of that at least convinces you personally that Nokia plans to 
continue to move Qt forward in a significant way. Thanks!

Josh
