Nokia doubles down on QT
Nokia has long been pushing QT as the UI toolkit of choice on Symbian and plans to continue doing so. But Nokia has also been keeping one foot in another boat by using GTK as the UI toolkit on Maemo, it's other platform. Now, however, it seems that this schism is about to end as Nokia has combined forces with Chipzilla to merge Maemo with their MobLin and form MeeGo, which officially positions QT as the officially blessed UI toolkit. I've never used QT before but I imagine it can't be all that different from Gtkmm, in which I was immersed for 3 years. And it'll be the only major mobile platform to encourage app development in C++ (Unless the newly reborn WinMo 7 decides to follow suit).
