The Qt Project have announced the first beta of the latest version of the Qt IDE, Qt Creator: This prerelease of Qt Creator 2.6 gives you a an early impression of the many new features and the bigger changes that we will introduce with this release. And of course it is your chance to give us last feedback and help us find bugs and problems. Let’s start with the most apparent change: We replaced what we called “Target” before in Qt Creator, with what we call “Kits”.
Unfortunately, Symbian support has been removed because of "the lack of a maintainer". The comments recommend that Qt Creator 2.4 is kept to develop for Symbian. This is very unfortunate, in your editor's opinion. Having multiple versions of the same IDE installed to support different platforms is a painful, and bloated, situation to be in.
