What to Expect From Qt 4

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the kan-you-kode-what-i-kode dept.

An anonymous reader writes "A presentation given by Matthias Ettrich (director of Qt development, author of LyX, and founder of the KDE project), was given to the annual KDE Developer's Conference in Nove Hardy, Czech Republic. In this presentation, Matthias details what's going to be new in Qt 4.0, which will be used as a base for the next version of KDE after 3.2. Apparently, Qt 4.0 will not only include faster startup times and lighter memory usage, but will have sweeping architectural changes, including a splitting of Qt's GUI classes and non-GUI classes."

      I'm stunned my Seppuku post got modded down. I thought it was really funny. Seppuku isn't just for when your master dies. You must commit Seppuku when you dishonor yourself, your family, your master. You must also commit Seppuku when your master is doing something dishonorable. Losing battles is also a good reason to commit Seppuku. You should also commit seppuku when ordered to do so. Also, should your master order you to do something like, "Murder your family", that is a good time to commit seppuku, as then your master would be honor bound to protect the family as his own. (In theory.)

    I like both of these photos about equally. The first because even without my favorite belt, it's a good butt pose. The second, because you've "caught me" in my favorite bulge caress!
