My general feeling about Meego & QT is that Nokia is abandoning 5+ years of developing the Maemo OS, associated libraries, build tools, etc. and community infrastructure in favor of an ill-defined partnership with Intel & the potential for easier porting of apps between Meego & Symbian devices. They are imo starting over from scratch & alienating existing users and developers at a time when Maemo is starting to mature into one of the most robust operating systems for phones.

, I can just guess what may produce integrating the two experiences.

The move to Qt has nothing to do with MeeGo (in fact, Moblin used mostly Gtk+).

I wish the forum supported posts shaped like anchors so people could more easily detect baiting.
