Nokia compra Trolltech

Últimamente no dejan de producirse grandes movimientos alrededor de las librerías Qt. Tras la adición de la GPL v3 y la liberación de KDE 4.0, hoy vuelven a protagonizar sin duda la noticia del día.

En un movimiento que ha sorprendido a toda la comunidad, Nokia ha anunciado que compra Trolltech ASA, la empresa desarrolladora de las librerías Qt. En los siguientes enlaces tenemos los detalles de la noticia:

El anuncio oficial en la web de Trolltech

Carta a la comunidad

La noticia en dot.kde.org   

La valoración por parte de los desarrolladores claves de Trolltech y KDE está siendo positiva. El primer movimiento por parte de Nokia ha sido comenzar los trámites para convertirse en un patrocinador ( "patron" ) de KDE.

Y esto no ha hecho más que empezar. Este movimiento plantea muchísimos interrogantes, ¿será una respuesta a Android?, ¿qué ocurrirá con el software de las tablets basado en GTK+?, ¿reemplazará Qtopia a Symbian en un futuro?, ¿cumplirá Nokia sus promesas y no afectará negativamente al desarrollo de Qt?

Solo el tiempo nos lo dirá ...

As one of its initiatives,

As one of its initiatives, the Editorial Board of EMS instituted annual Best Paper Awards inaugurally in 2005. The aim of the awards is to recognize those authors whose paper epitomizes the aims, scope pass4sure HP0-J25 and high standards of the journal. It is essential that first of all candidate papers display high quality, innovation and rigour such as in the way their model or software testing is performed and reported. But they must also be interdisciplinary in their problem treatment and reasonably generic in their utility. For papers published in 2008 the Editors have decided for a second straight year to make a single award in each of three categories: Integrated Modelling; Generic Modelling and/or Software Methods; and Decision Support. pass4sure EX0-100 With support from Board members, we are pleased to report on the selections of the three Editors of EMS. The “Best Paper 2008: Integrated Modelling” category was awarded to Yuqiong Liu, Hoshin Gupta, Everett Springer and Thorsten Wagener for “Linking science with environmental decision making: Experiences from an integrated modelling approach to support pass4sure E20-522  sustainable water resources management.” In this paper the challenges involved in bridging science and decision making in water resources management are discussed with reference to lessons drawn from a long term integrated modelling project in the semi-arid southwestern USA. pass4sure 1Y0-A11  The authors present a generic framework and guidelines for effective decision support using integrated modelling and scenario analysis. The proposed approach aims to produce ‘usable’ scientific information, by improving its credibility, legitimacy and saliency for decision support.
