But what about Qt in general?
I mean, that framework, that HUGE development suite, it sinks way further down than just the mobile platforms.
Did I read the OP correct that even the Qt stuff as a whole will be orphaned.

It just can't be right. Qt is huge and is used and supported by a lot of companies worldwide.
It just can't be so that they are abandoning all that.
If so, then they have truly lost the minds and sold their sole to m$.
