| - | + | * Web downloadable. Easy to find. Clear ''what'' to get for different host and target. | |
| - | + | * Simple installation. Minimal number of end-user steps. | |
| - | + | * Minimal end user time to setup. | |
| - | + | * Dynamic system requirements collection: Host OS, target, development type (Qt, WRT, ...) | |
| - | + | * Supports all aspects of SDK. IDE, toolchain, debugging tools, packaging, VM | |
| - | + | * Single, cross-OS installer (?) | |

What about the creation of a single, Qt-based MeeGo installer, similar to the Qt SDK installer. It would have the following attributes: | What about the creation of a single, Qt-based MeeGo installer, similar to the Qt SDK installer. It would have the following attributes: | ||
