    Qt now open for community contributions
    QT SOFTWARE LAUNCHES QT.GITORIOUS.ORG AND PUBLISHES QT ROADMAP

    Today, we at Qt Software opened our repositories to the public. Now Qt developers can help guide and shape the future development of Qt by contributions of code, translations, examples and other material to Qt and Qt-related projects.

    Since we moved to git as our version control system in late summer 2008, the web-based Gitorious was an obvious choice for helping us manage the contributions. We have funded its founder Johan Sørensen and one of his colleagues to work on tweaks and added functionality like team support and wikis that are now available to all projects using Gitorious. We will continue to work on improvements to Gitorious together with the project in the future.

    The new contribution site at http://qt.gitorious.org will not only host Qt itself but also a number of Qt-related tools and projects including the Qt Creator IDE, Qt Jambi, and various Qt Labs projects.

    Details about the contribution model can be found on our website or in Tor Arne's blog posting at http://labs.qtsoftware.com/blogs/2009/05/11/qt-public-reposi...


    QT ROADMAP PUBLISHED ON QTSOFTWARE.COM

    Along with the launch of the open repositories, we are publishing a roadmap at http://www.qtsoftware.com/developer/qt-roadmap that gives an overview of current features in development and research projects and help you understand Qt's future direction. But not only that: we'd love you to help us shape this direction through feedback and contributions.

    QT JAMBI 4.5.0_01 RELEASED UNDER LGPL

    Additionally, we have released Qt Jambi to the open repositories today. This is the final feature release which will be followed by a one-year maintenance period. We are confident that a commited group of developers will take over and make it a successful open source community project.

    Read more about the Jambi release in Eskil's blog posting at http://labs.qtsoftware.com/blogs/2009/05/11/.
