“Generic Component Framework” the foundation on which VTK Designer 2 sits, won the 3rd place in the QtCentre Contest. When the finalists were put up I practically gave up because the other entries were mature projects while GCF had about 2-3 months of effort (I had sent GCF build 102 for the contest today we have GCF build 590) put in at that time and it was not well tested (atleast on Linux as they rightly pointed out). Today GCF is in a much mature stage thanks to the VTK Designer project.
Anyways, it was very cool to see a mention of GCF in the final results page. I am very happy to say that it won the 3rd place in the contest.
As a result of all this I hope I will get Johan’s book Foundations of Qt® Development.
