Welcome to the April edition of the ICS newsletter, where we continue our educational theme with a new upcoming four part webinar series, Qt for Beginners. This complimentary series is geared toward Qt newcomers or for anyone in need of a refresher. I will kick off the series and each webinar thereafter will provide an overview of a specific aspect of the Qt framework. We also have more to come within the automotive IVI sector as ICS has developed open source code for IVI Media Manager development. We introduce you to our innovative Media Manager in a series of blog posts leading up to our participation next week at GENIVI AMM in Paris. We will then round it out with a Media Manager webinar scheduled in May. Finally, I wish to direct you to the many informational blogs, on demand webinar replays and upcoming training across the US to continue our support of the Qt ecosystem. We hope you benefit from all of our material and invite you to explore and attend!
