Qt Nokia will introduce Qt to the maemo platform in addition to GTK+. The first actual step will be the distribution of the Qt libraries for application development in maemo.org during 4Q2008. Nokia wants to explore cross-platform possibilities between S60 and maemo. It is interesting also to check the interest in the developer community for Qt in the tablets. This is also a way to attract more attention from the KDE community, a sensible move especially if the Trolltech acquisition gets completed.

Qt quandary

As a developer, what in my incentive to learn GTK+ now? I've used Qt a few times, and it is gloriously complete. GTK+ on the other hand, is extremely inaccessible to me at the moment. I was beginning to learn the API, but why would I if Qt will be officially supported? Qt is a far nicer platform, and has potential to be far more cross platform. This announcement is very confusing.
