found (possible) error in release
Message 1 in thread
To whom it may concern,
I have just installed and been using the Release Candidate to integrate Qt
into the Eclipse CDT IDE. I have gotten things up and running, but when
using the cheat sheet on how to create an address book I uncovered an error.
<copy/paste> (Under "Adding the Widgets to the Main Dialog")
We'll start by adding the QListWidget. Make sure the Item Widgets
(Item-Based) group is expanded in the Qt C++ Widget Box, then click on the
List Widget item and drag it onto the top-left corner of the form. The Qt
property editor (Window > Show View > Qt C++ Property Editor) will now
display the properties for the list widget. Using the property editor, set
the objectName property to ***.
Now we will insert the Add and Delete buttons. Make sure the Buttons group
in the Qt C++ Widget Box is expanded, then drag two Push Buttons to the
top-right corner of the form. Rename the buttons "addButton" and
"deleteButton", set their text properties to *** and *** respectively.
<end copy/paste>
I believe the missing strings (denoted by *** above) should be
"addressList", "Add", and "Delete".
These omissions confused me for a minute but I'm pretty sure I figured them
out. Otherwise, I really like this release. I am new to Qt but really
wanted to work with it through Eclipse so this is an excellent bit of work.
Thanks, hope this helps some other newbies :)

Thanks for finding this (unfortunately creeped in at a lot of places
in the cheat sheet).
