Please be aware that these are snapshots and please do report any issues you find in "our bugtracker":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/.
Thank you!

Great, thanks for announce.
-
When was it posted in the mailing list. This build is of Sept 07.
-
lyuts: Yes, the servers are updated and we hope to be able to provide regular snapshots for the master branch now.

IrQX: Check "Qt Creator's page on gitorious page":http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-creator. You do not need to checkout the code, the web page does provide a list of recent activities in the repository.

I feel providing a readme with every release is easier for the end user
-
chetankjain, I'm not sure snapshots are for end users. I think they are mostly for one who know what he is doing and ready for problems because of unstability.
-
ok I what I mean is, how much effort would it take to include one file in the snapshot outlining the new features/fixes ... vs. every user who uses the snapshot to go to the gitorious page and check the recent activities...
-
chetankjain: The effort depends very much on how useful this should be to users. The git log messages are meant to be short messages that describe the change to other people hacking on creator. Providing a list of those changes is easy, but targets an audience that is tracking creator from git already:-) And of course this is exactly the information available at gitorious, too.
Something that is understandable to users of creator would require quite a bit of effort: Somebody would need to go over all the commits, understand what they are trying to do and then put that into user-understandable terms. Believe me, that is harder than it sounds:-) E.g. I believed I could just touch up our internal weekly reports and send them to our mailing list... turns out that "touching up" is actually "writing new" most of the time since I want people using creator to understand what we did, not managers already familiar with where we want to go. Doing this once a week is quite motivating, but I do not care to set aside the time each and every night to do this.
If somebody here wants to write changelogs for the snapshots he is free to do so e.g. here in the wiki. I would appreciate the effort as I could use some inspiration for my weekly status mails;-)
-
Tobias: I see your point and fully agree that doing it on a nightly basis would be too much! Weekly updates would be good enough I guess -- if it could be shared :)
-
chetankjain: Feel free to join the "Qt Creator Mailing list":http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator (or check "the archives":http://lists.trolltech.com/pipermail/qt-creator/). It is public.
I try to write up a summary every week for a while now (even though I occasionally skip one week and then cover two weeks in the next report). The last one is "here":http://lists.trolltech.com/pipermail/qt-creator/2010-September/007602.html, but I am trying to send out a new one today or maybe Monday.

Thanks Tobais :) .. just joined it

I liked it so much... I just want to use it for Symbian and Windows development. However. I do not know how to use it with symbian.

To use it for symbian, you need to install 5th edition sdk also. I think there is a thread describing the steps. Better to wait till an update for Nokia Qt SDK is provided.
-
Yaeh... I liked the idea of nokia SDK... However i prefer to work manually since I can tweak everything...
And I use different compilers also (I'd like also to work with the desktop).

Denis, of course. but I use for my work QtCreator which I build from git://gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-creator.git every week and it works stably:)
