Hi Sebastien,

I'm affiliated to lqt but to be fair I wanna say that you also
have several libraries when you use Qt:

QtCore       : all the basic classes (reflection, event-loop, threading,
               UTF8 strings, an easy-to-use XML partser)
QtGui        : all the 2d widget classes and more
QtXml        : more XMl support
QtXmlPatterns: much more XML
QtOpenGL     : OpenGl
QtWebkit     : Webkit
QtScript     : JustInTime compiles for JS
QtNetwork    : network classes

But all the Qt classes have a very god documentation and
we try to make the building the binding to these libs
as simple as possible.
