KDE Core/Platform 11/KDEQtRelationship
Qt KDE relations
Us and Them
Respect should go both ways? Tone of messages should be friendly.
Offering KDE as playground - less strict, gets feedback, gets real app exposure
-> more that a Qt labs project
Qt and KDE
Qt is cross platform, KDE is not there
KDE plan for QCS
Make KDE attractive Present KDE vision to Qt people
Sessions: KDE and Qt communities and working together, what can we learn from each other
Code of conduct
Technical: The things that should be merged: KUrl and friends KLocale QLocale Printing Config systems Archive handling
3rd party libraries
independent Qt libraries
Libraries for Qt developers that are not part of Qt
- system how to get libraries ?!? ruby gems, cpan
The contributor agreement?
How do we handle improved KDE stuff that goes into Qt but has a different api?
Open Governance
App developers:
KDE is still a great public showcase and large resource of Qt example code. KDE is an early adopter, commercial customers are way behind. KDE is a good pool for people. KDE wants to contribute to Qt. KDE cares about Qt. High quality feedback and contributions.
Example for successful library: QJson
- modularization is great
Rekonq is interesting because it is a real world demo using qt webkit.
Git is a bonus
Can we convince people to do modularization and clean up for KDE? Can kdelibs benefit from Qt test infrastructure.
KDE attitude: complain about blog post
Buildsystem???
Can we put cmake projects into qt creator.
Get a foot into the door: go for qt creator What about QML designer
