Google Earth ( http://earth.google.com ), the
so-called "3D interface to the planet", is built on
Qt. The fact that the latest release is cross-platform
and runs natively on GNU/Linux, Windows and Mac OS X
is a testament to the high quality and portability of
the Qt framework. 
 
I'm mentioning this because Qt/KDE is sometimes bashed
for supposedly not being friendly enough to
closed-source, third party software -- Google, Opera,
Skype, Wengo and countless other vendors who use Qt
have shown otherwise. 
 
Would it be appropriate to write a Dot article about
why Google chose Qt? We could even try to get an
interview from a Google developer. 
 
Thanks, 
-Mark
