[SailfishDevel] Correct way of referring to Sailfish

2013-11-25 Thread Matt Austin
Hi, Just a small pedantic question - when referring to Sailfish, should I be using: 1) "Sailfish" 2) "Sailfish OS" 3) "SailfishOS" Is there any versioning scheme I should also use when I want to say that my app works on "Sailfish"? Thanks, -- Matt m...@mattaustin.me.uk http://mattaustin.me.u

[SailfishDevel] Qt version plans?

Hi, I've previously developed a python/pyside/qt/qml application for Harmattan - but developed directly on my device using SSH, a text editor, and the python shell. I'd love to update the application for SailfishOS (I'm anticipating it hopefully will be mostly QML changes), and have just download
