I just heared from a friend that Qt DN will be off at end of 2012.
Is it right?

But maybe QtDN will be closed shortly BEFORE we all die… now, imagine that. Maybe this closure will actually trigger the catastrophe ;)

Anyway, can any of our gorgeous Trolls confirm (or better – disprove) this? Or maybe it will just be moved to qt-project?

As far as I know, and I’m the project manager for Qt DevNet, the future of this site is bright and long! We have budget, people, stats to die for and a lot of interest in Qt DevNet from inside and outside of Nokia. Both for the amazing Qt community we so humbly serve and for the code base of Qt DevNet it self.

And besides, we don’t follow the Maya calendar around here. :)

Great news, Marius,

Can you share those stats? Or are they published already somewhere?

Oh, come on… It must be just a Mayan’s rumor :D Even though if it is true I would be worried there is a lot of time till the end of 2012 ;)

“beta” is the new catch phrase, it means: “come on in, we have cookies!” (in case of QtDN, that is actually “muffins”). GMail was in beta, if I recall well, for 5 years…

AFAIK Qt DevNet will not stay beta for 5 years :-)
But to get more info, we should ask Alexandra or Marius

My point was that the term “beta” is being widely overused, especially on web sites. QtDN is in good shape anyway – whether it should be still called beta is somewhat debatable (then again, I don’t really mind whether it is still beta or final – it works just as well). Same was the case with GMail.

Rumor has it that the beta badge may go away in the not so far future… But the pastries haven’t been ordered yet :)
