It is enough to care about replying off-topic with a couple of links to sources.

The first step is up to Microsoft: Native SDK to support C++ Development.

If that happens then the door will be technically open for anybody to try, since Qt is open source etc etc. See also Qt Support.

PS: Now please go back to topic or open a new thread. Thanks!

It has been hinted and speculated that WP8 will incorporate Qt as part of Nokias deal with Microsoft, possibly an attempt at creating a backup plan. I mean if windows phones fails, as long as it is Qt enabled, more apps and Nokia could revive MeeGo or similar and help porting Qt apps over to it, allowing it to join the current eco system of platforms with all the same apps

But one can only dream that Nokia has any sense left.. Won't happen under E-flop anyways

Wouldn't it be funny if RIM released the n900 successor??

I mean something with a tilt-qwerty or otherwise a large (~5.2in) screen, with current-gen specs running full-fledged Qt on a Unix-like kernel.

Well, no hw keyboard, but the rest is brewing with native platform development based on Qt and QNX underneath.

So there is competition for the third ecosystem it seems.

Not surprising, Nokia sues RIM:

Thiago Macieira (former Trolltech and Nokia) is an Intel employee, maintainer of Qt Core, and also of those stats. He was one of the main driver of the open governance initiative that lead to the Qt Project itself. Intel is also a sponsor of the Qt Contributors Summit, see my link above.

PS: if you are in San Francisco next week you will find Thiago & others (/me included) both at the Ubuntu Developer Summit (Qt Project is involved with sessions and sponsorship) and the Tizen conference.

ah... i thought tizen dropped qt altogether. I have to admit I totally lost interest after the grand reset.

RIM seems to know how these things work since their Qt stuff is merged to upstream.
