Let's hope this is how things are, but I wouldn't count on it. AFAIK with it's cpu-power, they can be using it right now to crack some encryption known as "secure". It doesn't have to be DDNS for starters...
Perhaps its time to just firewall off Eastern Europe, Russia, and China and call it a day. Whitelist them when needed.
and send nukes, just to be sure...
Yeah, like you Americans don't have spammers, malware creators and hackers... wake up! East isn't responsible for _your_ _American_ corporations with they cheese like crippleware.
Firewall yourself from the internet, cut the cable, you'll be 100% sure! Windows was never ready for the internet anyway...
Someone please mod up the parent, it's so true! And I think that if people would stop saying about the crisis and bad economy, I would really recover faster.
You don't have to use them if you don't need them and if you don't use them you also don't need MOC, just don't put QOBJECT macro into your class declaration, that's all...

Qt Becomes LGPL

I totally agree, I've used both GNOME and KDE4 on Ubuntu for couple of months, but I was very disappointed, it just sucked big time, especially Kubuntu's KDE4. Now I use openSUSE 11.1 with KDE4.2 RC1 and I have to say it's the best KDE I've seen. I've also tested recently openSolaris and it have better polished and tweaked GNOME than Ubuntu.
...we'll be introducing layout switching for plasma in kde 4.3 letting you change between (or add to existing) layouts with the click of a button. you can already swap things about by hand, since the support for this was built into the design from the start, but making that part of the machine user accessible is kde 4.3 material.
GTK is most certainly cross-platform. Sylpheed, Pidgin, Gimp, gvim, and several others are all very clean ports to windows that look as good, and run as fast as their originals in linux.
They are not as fast nor as stable on windows unfortunately. And Qt is more than "just" cross-platform it's an OS abstraction layer, phonon multimedia framework, webkit integration, native look support, and all that stuff.
It's pretty much brand new, and I havn't personally used it (nor intend to since I don't find IDEs to help my productivity).
You should try then, because Qt Creator isn't just another IDE, it's lightweight, fast and keyboard centric and minimalistic. I find it very helpful to boost productivity actually.

I'll give it a try, but I'm really suspicious about "objective" "third-party" analyses, if you know what I mean ;)

You mean found and patched vulnerabilities, right? So which system is now more vulnerable? Think...
Good luck...
Read the license.

Someone had to say that. Mod parent up!

What's wrong with you, it's all about choice remember? Now we have more choice ;D
I'll stick with ANSI C++ thank you very much.

so .. yes. we're going there. =)
wow, now I'm happier KDE4 user :)
Presumably your "arguments" don't include the vast developer and language support for Gtk?
Also we're using and compiling Gtk on Windows just fine. It even has nice native look and feel.
Yea, and Pidgin hangs every 5 minutes on Windows. And it does not feel like windows app.

I second Qt Creator, although it's in beta now, but it's a really good lightweight IDE.
Than go back to Windows or whatever, just stop bitching about things you don't understand. We _really_ don't need your ignorance, just go away.
Until Nokia relicenses Qt to something like the LGPL - many of us would welcome that! - GTK will remain the library of choice in situations like this.
Actually, Qt 4.5 _IS_ LGPL You may wanna read this: http://www.qtsoftware.com/about/news/lgpl-license-option-added-to-qt
