That’s right.
This weekend we integrated the animation and state machine APIs (part of the Qt Kinetic project from the road map) in Qt’s master branch.
They were both released as solutions before, and we’ve had a lot of feedback. The APIs have been through a bunch of reviews and iterations, and we’re really really proud of the results. So go and pull the latest version of the repository and try out the examples and the examples.
I’m not going to say any more about it, rather I’ll just link to a bunch of blogs that we posted earlier. (PS. some of these have screenshots and even videos)
Animated Layouts with Qt Kinetic.
Qt Animation Framework reloaded.
Qt Hierarchical State Machine Framework add-on released.
New (and last?) QtAnimationFramework Solution (wasn’t the last, by the way.)

When do you expect to integrate the declarative UI? Also, any dates on when we can this out in a stable release?
What does this mean for the Kinetic project? Is that project now completed? If not, can it be compiled with/against the core libraries with no conflicts?
Yes please, I can has declarative-ui?
This is great news. The new animation framework is very well thought out. Declarative UI also seems to be very well thought out. I can’t wait to release code using both of these new APIs.
gcarvalho: I don’t know when the declarative UI will be ready for integration, but it’s available here: http://labs.trolltech.com/page/Projects/Graphics/Kinetic/DeclarativeUI
allen: The Kinetic project is not completed. This only means that we felt that this particular part of the APIs were now stable enough to be integrated into Qt. We will continue to work on it there.
Where is SCXML support? I can’t find QScriptedStateMachine class in this branch.
hanrai: QtSCXML has not been integrated
