using Qt Creator 1.3 on Windows together with the
Qt 4.6 — including new Qt support for the Symbian
platform— can test out and provide feedback on these preliminary* new features:
Support for building Qt-based applications with the winscw toolchain, and for devices with gcce and rvct toolchains

aim of Qt Creator 1.3 is to allow Symbian developers to familiarize
themselves with Qt Creator and provide feedback that will help us improve Symbian support in future versions of Qt Creator.
