MeegoTouch bindings (alpha) available

We’ve just uploaded the initial version of the libmeegotouch bindings, including a pretty big example based on the C++ example “widgetsgallery” which explores the main widgets and features. As stated in the official MeeGo Touch documentation:

MeeGo Touch is a cross-platform application and UI framework library built on top of Qt. The framework library makes use of the very latest Qt features to implement a specific UI style primarily targeting touch screen devices.

Using MeeGo Touch makes it easy to implement good looking, fully finger optimized applications that automatically take advantage of multitouch, device sensors, animations and transitions to create an iconic user experience on a range of platforms from handhelds to the desktop.

This release was developed based on PySide/shiboken HEAD, which should ship as 0.4.1 in the coming days. If you’re adventurous enough, you can try it with the current 0.4.0. It also requires Qt 4.7 (MeeGo Touch dependency).
