Releases and Nominations

A Qt 5.4.0 beta is scheduled for release this week.

Lars Knoll is proposing some people as Platform Maintainers, whose job it will be to test and possibly fix errors/issues on a given platform. The current nominees are:

Qt on QNX

When BlackBerry introduced its new Qt-based BlackBerry 10 platform for smart phones and tablets, it generated a lot of interest in Qt on mobile. BlackBerry 10 is based on the QNX 1 operating system, a subsidiary of BlackBerry.

What is perhaps not as well known, is that Qt is well supported on QNX as an embedded operating system in its own right.

Qt 5.4.0 Alpha is Out!

Representing a significant milestone towards the next Qt release, the alpha version of Qt 5.4.0 came out this week. Qt 5.4.0 will include a number of interesting new features. In this blog post, I will briefly mention just a few of the highlights.

QtWebEngine, the replacement for QtWebKit that I described in a blog post a few months ago, will be included in the Qt 5.4.0 release and will be supported on the following desktop platforms: Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.

Qt 5.3.2 blockers have all been addressed. The plan is to release this week if nothing serious is discovered in testing.
