Dear John,

I would like to invite all members of Boston Linux and Unix User Group
to the free Qt QuickStart at the Hilton Woburn on July 23rd. Below is
the official invitation:

We are pleased to announce that ICS is hosting a series of free Qt
QuickStart seminars across the U.S. and will be stopping in the Boston
area July 23rd!

The QuickStart is a great opportunity to spend some time with the ICS
Qt experts and network with other Qt developers in your area.

Where and When
---------------------
July 23, 2009

Hilton Boston/Woburn
2 Forbes Rd.
Woburn, MA 01801

1:00 pm – 4:00 pm—The Graphics View Framework, Using Qt WebKit

Qt QuickStart: An Intensive Introduction to Qt
---------------------------------------------------------
This intensive introduction to Qt will help developers who are already
using Qt get the most out of it. It will also help those who are
considering using Qt in their next project make an informed decision.
The topics to be covered include:

* Intro to the Qt Framework
* Using signals and slots
* Layout managers vs. container widgets
* Turbo coding new widgets: handling mouse, keyboard, and screen events
* Advanced graphics using drawing primitives
* Application control center: main windows, menus, toolbars, and actions
* Introduction to Qt containers

The Graphics View Framework:
---------------------------------------
Qt's Graphics View provides a higher level of graphical abstraction
and reuse than QPainter alone. It can efficiently manage a large
number of standard and custom graphic items, with support for zooming,
transformations and animation. The topics in this seminar include:

*Structured Drawing
*The Graphics View Framework
*Coordinates
*Creating Items
*Animation
*Optimization
*Example


Using Qt WebKit
----------------------
WebKit is an open source web browser engine. Using Qt WebKit,
developers can maintain complete control over the browser environment,
and blend web, local content and services in a single rich
application. The topics in this seminar include:

*WebKit Overview
*Network Access
*Requests and Cookies
*Qt WebKit Architecture
*Pages and Frames
*History and Settings
*Plugins
*JavaScript
*Beyond the Web Browser
