 Dear Przemek,

 I would like to invite you and all members of Washington DC LUG to the free

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 Washington
D.C. area September 16th and the Philadelphia area on September 17th!


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

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
