Welcome to the world of large, multi-national companies. I don't
imagine Nokia's M&A teams were particularly mindful of the Qt/Gtk
distinction in Maemo when they made the acquisition.

So, unless there's a *very* shock announcement that OS2009 will be
based on Qt, I'd imagine this is also something of a surprise to most
of the maemo team ;-)

It will remain to be seen in that circumstance how well maemo resists
senior management-led internal pressure to consolidate on their own
Linux-based widget set, rather than the externally managed - and now
not strategic - Gtk.... if senior management know or care about
maemo-devices anyway ;-)

Cheers,

Andrew
