I concur with Gerbick. Qt has been a waste of time so far for any mobile OS. a web browser with only HMTL is more usful so far...QT need to gain ground or go home(again).

On the desktop, Skype and VLC would easily help you win that argument for Qt being the definitive route.

ITS ALIVE!!!!!
I doubt tizen is dead! Or will Samsung waste another 4 million for nothing...
The Tizen App Challenge is open through November 1, 2013 - it's time to get started!
$4 Million is the prize pool in their app competition, just to boost their app store for the release.
https://developer.tizen.org/contests...-app-challenge
Start developing NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!
I would love to see some of that money go to great devs here at TMO!

I know what you meant, but as it stands Qt is supposed to basically run everywhere. To me, that's a huge advantage. And yes, I do know how easy it is to work in Qt Quick/QML. Not even lately, historically I'd say it was quicker (pun unintended) to come up to speed with it than most other frameworks I've used in the past.
But it's still not the definitive tool/framework that will make or break any platform. Not yet, it seems.

Qt being a minnow on major platforms/ecosystems now, has more to do with business alliances/strategies & politics, than being technically poorer than competing toolkits.

It's not technically poorer than competing frameworks. In fact, I'd risk to say it's damn near superior.
But Qt is not a deciding factor for much anything mobile related at the moment no matter how much people think otherwise.
The business strategies for Qt is secondhand in this discussion; a wider discussion about that would entail past dealings and possible (theoretical) future dealings. All I know... it's on Tizen, it's on Jolla, it's on BB10... all three are on my radar at this very moment.
And that, my friend... is a good thing. But it's just not a deciding factor. And to reiterate my prior statement; that's a damn shame.
