[Releasing] Qt 5.0 alpha released

[marius.storm-olsen at nokia.com]

Hi, just wanted to share some download stats with you guys:

  10668 /qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.7z
      1 /qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.7z?51580699043405175974186249732156
     93 /qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.tar.7z
   2436 /qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.tar.bz2
   1616 /qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.tar.gz
    796 /qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.tar.xz
   6084 /qt5.0/alpha/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.0-alpha.zip

Since the first two and the last in this list indicate Windows downloads (due to the CRLF EOL, unless people use 'unzip -a'), we get a guesstimate of
  16753 Windows downloads
   4941 Linux/OSX downloads

~3.4x more Windows downloads than Linux and Mac OSX combined. Not hard facts, but still interesting.

Hi,



We are happy to announce the Qt 5.0 alpha release. This is the first major Qt release since the Qt Project went live, and a large amount of work and features have gone into this release.
