Nokia is ramping up development of its Qt open source user interface and application framework with a new release this week. Among the big new additions to Qt 4.6 is support for the widespread Symbian mobile phone operating system. Nokia is one of the biggest supporters of Symbian, with the vast majority of its devices using the OS. In 2008, it purchased Symbian and has since set on its own open source path. As a result, bumping Qt to version 4.6 — its second update this year — signals an acceleration of Nokias developer efforts.
