Will do :) Apropo ML, I happen to notice qt4-devel@garage is not registered at
nabble (I admit, I have crossed on to the dark RSS). I presume it's missing
just because nobody had the need for nabble or RSS. I would have registered it
myself but it felt kind of silly (=wrong) to represent the list in official
matters. So I'd kindly ask the power that be to register the related Maemo qt4
lists with nabble (just like this one already is, along with -users and -
community)

That's not a problem if they don't contain things that are *critical* to
run/use Qt apps on Maemo. Also, if these Qt addon libs are becoming 'official'
in the Harmattan timeframe, it would be smart to talk to Phil Thompson (PyQt
author) and possibly get official support for them in upstream PyQt (maybe it's
just me dreaming, but with a Nokia sticker on the Qt logo it doesn't sound all
that impossible).

To be honest I don't know about this service.. In my understanding it
converts mails in RSS feeds... If I got correctly, then yes you can... why
not.
We are a community and all the things that can give us benefits are welcome!

No they are just external libs. You can avoid to use them without any
problem..

The python people is my mind too.. Don't worry I'm not forget about you
guys.
BTW please follow the ML so that you can help us in that side and you can
sop
us if needed...
Some new Qt libs will be added.. they will be extra libs and there are not
python bindings for them...
