Default Digia buys Qt

From http://h-online.com/-1663753

The open source cross platform application framework Qt has been sold by its owner Nokia. Digia, the Finnish software and services company that previously purchased the commercial assets of Nokia's Qt development has announced that it is acquiring the entire Qt business and assets from Nokia. The deal will make Digia responsible for all of Nokia's previous Qt activities including product development, services, and commercial and open source licensing. The company estimates that over 450,000 developers and "thousands of companies" have used Qt.

The future owner says that, once acquired, it plans to "quickly enable Qt on Android, iOS and Windows 8 platforms". There have been previous projects to port Qt to Android, but this is the first time there has been a high-level commitment to put the cross platform application framework on Android or iOS.
