German c't magazine, a general computer / technology magazine has had two huge 
articles on coding with Qt, and I think they're great. Kalle Dahlheimer from 
KDAB has written them with some people whose names I can't recall right now 
(the archive CD is right here, so no biggie). Also, Daniel Molkentin told me 
he was giving some Qt workshop at the LinuxTag Chemnitz. We need that kind of 
stuff. And as a bindings developers (developing using the bindings, or 
developing the bindings himself?) I'm planning to write some stuff as soon as 
there's something for KDE4, but the Qt4 bindings are maturing just now. Some 
time ago, I published an article on my website about using PyQt4 [TUT], we 
need to make sure that we have that kind of stuff available in time, so 
developers can take advantage of our great framework, and we get better apps 
sooner.

Get better apps sooner.

Let's put it this way: if you need to ask a lawyer whether what you do is 
"right" or not, you are morally corrupt. Let's not go there. We don't base 
our morality on law. - Linus Torvalds
