Whenever a very generic question is asked on the list by a newbie, a suitable mail/template can be picked from the collection and posted. One individual (with the ability to judge when/what to post) could be assigned for this work at any point of time, and responsibility can be rotated periodically. Admin to start with?

Of Intel, AMD, Apple and IBM
by Amol Hatwar 26 Jun '03

26 Jun '03

Hi, I wonder if anyone has been noticing this lately... Apple recently announced the new G5 as the fastest PC in the industry. AMD has done some Intel creaming too. But very few know what's common between them. It's IBM. PowerPC chips that run on Macs are developed at IBM. How's AMD connected then? AMD's design team runs from an IBM chip design facility. Seems that IBM will help AMD and Apple develop the newer 64 bit platforms. Ahem... the new G5 is 64 bit (P4 is 32 bit). First, maybe AMD wants to sell itself. Second, maybe IBM wants to make sure that Intel has some competition. Whatever may be the going-ons but I think IBM is trying to do something major here... Any insights anyone? Regards, ah

emails on the list
by Sameer D. Sahasrabuddhe 25 Jun '03

25 Jun '03

Hi all, It would be nice if people took the following steps when writing to the list: 1. Do not top-post. When you quote an earlier message, be sure to quote _only_ the relevant parts, and write your reply _below_ the quoted matter. Please do not just start your reply on top of a quoted message - such messages go on increasing size so that the actual information content goes down with every reply. 2. Use the standard lead-in "> " (greater-than and a space" to mark quoted text. Most email clients are designed to recognise this character sequence, making the messages more readable. 3. When someone posts simple questions like "permission denied, what do I do?" or "how do I uninstall foobar rpm?" I think its better if list members provide pointers to newbie documentation instead of spoon-feeding the answers. Sameer.

FocusLost event in Qt
by Aseem Rane 24 Jun '03

24 Jun '03

Hello all, I want to capture focusLost event on some of the Qt widgets. I want to update some other widgets depending on this event. I know that I can override virtual method focusOutEvent, but doing so for most of the widgets I use is something I dont like. Is this the only way or am I missing something here??
