== How to apply ==

Developers with a good Qt development track must apply to that thread pointing to any of these sources:
* Your Qt 4 applications, all the better if they are ready for mobile e.g. with QML UI.
* Your maemo.org profile, Qt DevNet profile, Ohloh profile or anything showing who are you and what have you done in terms of development and community involvement.

Questions and feedback about the submissions are welcome in [http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84591 this forum thread].

#* Although an interesting project, it doesn't really fit in the original purpose of this activity. Doesn't really help showcasing Qt 5, or directly testing it before release. Thank you for your understanding.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 18:02, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

# '''[https://github.com/JDougherty/Fire-Department-Management-System Fire Department Management System]''', by [http://jwdougherty.com Joseph Dougherty] (jdougherty) - A management information system for fire departments. Joseph has worked with the Youngsville, NY fire department to develop and deploy a management system to track personnel, inventory, training, and emergencies. Joseph has been accepted into the QtOnPi device program for another project based around open source electronic voting. I would love to be able to port the FDMS to this mobile platform. The existing desktop development has been delayed due to academic responsibilities, but the project is active.

# '''[https://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22634 Updating the telepathy stack]''', by [http://launchpad.net/~rohangarg Rohan Garg] (shadeslayer) - With my Kubuntu Developer hat on, I'd like to apply to update the entire Telepathy stack on the N9. Apparently it's pretty [http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/pool/harmattan/free/t/telepathy-qt4-1/ outdated]. This also relates to Qt5 since the N9 uses telepathy-qt which will need testing against Qt 5. The latest release for telepathy qt4 is [http://cgit.freedesktop.org/telepathy/telepathy-qt4/ 0.9]. I'm well versed with debian packaging and fixing ARM builds. The new telepathy releases also support Peer-to-Peer DBus calls, enabling developers to make P2P games.
#* Too soon for this project in the context of Qt 5? We are giving preference to projects with a tangible outcome while this one still would depend on someone else developing an app using those libraries.--[[User:qgil|qgil]] 21:45, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

This project will become way cooler with a smart remote controller, and there is no better device to make this controller than the N950, because of its awesome built-in keyboard, touchscreen that can be used as a remote touchpad, acelerometers, plenty of conectivity options, hackable software platform, and native Qt5 suport. The Smart Remote application will talk to the media center device over Bluetooth and WiFi to control the playback, browse the media colection with content preview, display metadata about the content being played, and control the web browser. It will be the perfect showcase application of Qt5's portability and fancyness. Latter the smart remote application can be extended to control other media centers and devices, as a HTPC or a regular tablet / phone media player. '''I prefer the N950.'''

The actual version is Turpial 2.0, it's in beta and supports Qt, and now we are working to port it on every mobile platform (actually is under development only for Android devices). As a memeber of the development team, I plan to port Turpial to Qt 5, also working on a synchronization system of the accounts and preferences between devices. I'm an experienced Qt developer, using Qt at work since 2009 and involved in other open source projects that support Qt (I am one of the authors of [https://github.com/Emesene Emesene] and contribute to [http://tortoisehg.bitbucket.org TortoiseHG] with patches sometimes).

You can use keyboard or system input method to enter equations, and then click "Ok" to calculate results. In addition, you can use the "=" symbol to remember your temporarily value, such as "x = sin(pi/4)". Website: http://tingercalc.sourceforge.net/. Nokia store: http://store.ovi.com/content/254303. I'm a Qt Ambassador, and also participating in QtonPi program. I am very glad to port "Tinger Calc" to Nokia N9 and test Qt5 libraries.

# '''OpenGL ES Demos''', by [http://qt-project.org/member/123299 Ken Phillis] (Kphillis) - A Series of OpenGL ES Demos aimed at introducing developers how to use OpenGL ES and QT5 features found on the N9 or N950 series of Smart Phones to create games.
