Hello all,

After a long silence here is a status report of the SDK team.

Tools
 * Toolchains and Kit support to automatically detect a available click 
chroot
 * Devicesupport, connected Ubuntu devices are automatically registered 
in QtCreator and can be set for different kits
 * Deploy support(CMake), the projects contents are uploaded 
automatically using SSH after running make install on a local directory
 * Run and Debug support: the command that should be run on the device 
is read from the desktop file in the deployeddirectory. This means C++ 
and QML debugging work as well as QML Profiling
 * Dynamically forward ports, depending on adb forward --list output.
 * Adb Server is not restarted by default anymore, only a press on the 
refresh button will trigger the restart. That will fix problems with 
failing adb scripts
 * Local run support for Ubuntu projects
 * New Unity scope template
 * Automatically create click package after build on device
 * Switch to framework ubuntu-sdk-14.04
 * Pass user arguments to cmake running in the chroot (LP: #1292892) 
(LP: #1292892)
