About PySide

PySide is the Nokia-sponsored Python Qt bindings project, providing
access to not only the complete Qt 4.7 framework but also Qt Mobility,
as well as to generator tools for rapidly generating bindings for any
C++ libraries.

The PySide project is developed in the open, with all facilities you’d
expect from any modern OSS project such as all code in a git
repository [1], an open Bugzilla [2] for reporting bugs, and an open
design process [3]. We welcome any contribution without requiring a
transfer of copyright.

Note about Python3.2 support

To enable the experimental Python3.2 support on PySide you need to have Shiboken compiled for Pyhton3.2. You can achieve that passing -DUSE_PYTHON3=ON on Shiboken cmake command line – PySide will use the same Python version used to compile Shiboken.

PySide Team

Currently, the vast majority of the PySide core development is done by the OpenBossa INdT team in Brazil and funded by Nokia’s MeeGo Computers team – the PySide project has internally been an enabler for the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan Python project. Unfortunately, the Nokia N9 is the only MeeGo (Harmattan) phone to be published by Nokia, and Nokia’s MeeGo team is being ramped down already in the near future. Because of this, the Nokia MeeGo funding for PySide is slated to end after this year, and I have also failed to find a new sponsor for the project within Nokia.

I’m hopeful that the project is already sufficiently healthy to stay alive and grow without Nokia acting as a midwife. This would imply the community to take a leading role in both the project guidance and actual development. I’ve outlined my own ideas and concerns in a mail to the PySide mailing list:

http://lists.pyside.org/pipermail/pyside/2011-August/002816.html

If you are interested in voicing your opinion or participating in PySide’s future development, please join the PySide mailing list and chime in!

Cheers,
