The one thing I'm not clear about is "which" framework to use if developing a brand-new app?
All the maemo docs for the SDK point to use GTK+, but then there's QT floating around.
If you want to write a brand new app, and want app to look professional, stable, execute fast, reliable... use GTK or QT if you want to release your app in the next few months?

Also note that GTK+ has a C API, while Qt is C++.

I am also a bit confused at the moment... Can we expect maemo 5-specific Qt documentation any time soon, or how does this work?
