Qt Trolltech has just released Qt 4.1. Many new features were added since Qt 4.0, including integrated support for rendering SVG drawings and animations, a PDF backend to the Qt printing system and a lightweight unit testing framework. Qt Designer, OpenGL support and Visual Studio .NET integration were updated too.

Read that on the Dot. Thanks for the clarification, though.

As for going places, KDE is already well ahead of Gnome in my estimation and KDE 4.0 is the talk of the *nix industry. KDE has already gone places, and is used by approx. 2/3 of the Linux populace, if the polls are to be believed. Save your FUD for those who deserve it, please.

FYI, I find Gnome sparse and insulting to my intelligence. And Nautilus reeks. That's just my impression.

Polls are never to be believed since people answering them are different form >>normal<< people, they are self selected and not representative of the population as a whole.

We will never truly know what DE is leading, maybe Gnome (but its users don't know what Gnome or Linux is) or KDE (and its user answer every poll aggressively) or IceWM (and its users maliciously manipulate polls) but who gives a rats, no mater who leads now, it wont change much about the further development of KDE, Gnome or IceWM.

" and KDE 4.0 is the talk of the *nix industry."

The *nix industry is still stuck on Motif apps.

Even motif improves over time. In the soon to be released open motif 2.3, it will have antialiased fonts.

It not even that, the fact is, KDE got it sorted out long ago - GNOME is still bickering over which media framework to use, which browser and collaboration tool should be included - whether the 'GNOME System Tools' is part of the GNOME scope.

Its a bloody mess alright - and personally, in terms of KDE and KOffice, I would rather wait a little longer for a well integrated destop and Office suite trying to use the cobbled together crap that is GNOME and its derivatives (JDS/etc).

On FreeBSD and many other operating systems which have KDE available, in some cases the total usage of KDE when compared to GNOME is alot higher than the Linux world - Solaris with KDE - its a dream, rock solid UNIX base with a sexy desktop, what more can anyone ask for?
