If I was to develop an application for Ubuntu after the Ubuntu Phone announcement, I would be concerned with several issues. I know that these things will not change immediately, but I'm thinking about the strategic decision to ensure good support from Canonical.
- Will QML/QT be the way forward now also for the desktop environment?
- Is Quickly now a tool of the past?
- What languages will be the preferred languages? Is C++ and JavaScript the way for the future while Python and Vala might not be the most strategic choices?
- How will this affect existing APIs? Will the traditional model with libraries change?
