In need of a Qt Library? Like to publish one? Check out #inqlude!
Inqlude is meant to be the place where you find all information and pointers to Qt libraries, components or modules. There's the webpage, a format for describing Q-based libraries and a command line client to install libraries. It's all still in alpha phase, but certainly worth a look. For more and up-to-date information follow this link.

IGLOO for the masses: Microsemi announced the new IGLOO2 FPGA
Like the old IGLOOs, it's based on the non-volatile Flash technology, with it's advantages of independence from external configuration devices, lower power (flash freeze), higher radiation immunity and security. Up until now, Flash based devices have been rather small. But with IGLOO2, Microsemi is now in direct competition with the other important FPGA manufacturers. IGLOO2 has
- 6-150 kLUTs (like Xilinx Artix-7 or Spartan6)
- up to 16 5G SerDes (competitors: <10)
- max. 574 User IOs (like Spartan6, more than Artix-7)
- 700-5000 kBits RAM
- up to 2 DDR controllers and 4 PCIe endpoints
The M2GL050 is already shipping and starts at less than $7USD for high volume orders.
2013-06-11
Python(x,y) 2.7.5.0 is now available on guo's Software Server
