Fervor, a simple multiplatform application autoupdater inspired by Sparkle

[pypt]

Hi,

one of my Qt projects required an autoupdate mechanism and I didn't find a convincing one, so I created my own. Maybe you'll find it useful or even contribute:

bq. "Fervor":https://github.com/pypt/fervor is a simple, multiplatform (Qt-based) application autoupdater, inspired by "Sparkle":http://sparkle.andymatuschak.org/.
Features:

• Multiplaform (works / should work on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, ...).
• Checks for updates both automatically and manually.
• Displays release notes.
• Updates might be skipped or installed later.
• Backwards compatible with Sparkle (can use the very same appcast RSS).
• BSD license.

It's not so much an autoupdate library at the moment (it only shows a link to the user with an update, and the user has to install it him/herself), but it does the job.

Check it out: "Fervor at GitHub":https://github.com/pypt/fervor

Really cool. I'm very much in need of such a kind of library. One doubt. Can I use this for Mobile applications, like Symbian...?
