The RPM Fusion repository is now available as a replacement for Dribble (see here for instructions on how to setup the repository, QMC2 is in the nonfree section) — thanks to Christopher Stone and Julian Sikorski
The included binaries are known to work on Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP using the original MAME and MESS variants (MAMEUIFX32 is supported as well through a replacement template for the MAME variant).
You may also look here for builds of intermediate/test releases (and the latest final release): Win32 packages
Please note that we can not create binaries for any platform, only for the i586 and x86_64 architectures at the moment. If you need binaries for a different platform, simply use the source RPM and rebuild it using this command to create them:
$ rpmbuild --rebuild <source-rpm>
Ubuntu 9.10
QMC2 .deb packages for Ubuntu 9.10 are available here: Emulator Related PPA — thanks to Marcelo Bossoni

Sorry, we are not creating any icon image packs yet. You could use MAMU’s icons for example, or the ones from MameUI (formerly Mame32). Either way, they’ll need to be converted to PNGs. This can easily be accomplished with tools like convert (from ImageMagick) or whatever image manipulation program you might like.
As we don’t have the written permission to publish the (converted) icons, you’ll have to convert them yourself.Here’s a simple script which does this job. It’s based on ImageMagick’s convert utility and requires that all *.ico files are in the current working directory. The *.png files will be created there as well.
Note: since QMC2 0.2.b9 there’s support to directly fetch this data (and more) from MAWS which may be more up to date than the files on disk. Of course, this requires that you’re online when using the MAWS feature, though parts of the data are cached and could also be used offline (only the HTML, no images).

KHotKeys definitions for QMC2 by Armin Schmidhuber.
This is obsolete now. QMC2 includes built-in support to remap shortcuts & GUI control keys since version 0.1.b11!
UNOFFICIAL patch for MAME/MESS 0.136u2+ to support native game/machine resolutions in full screen mode (-video soft only).
Note: if you use this patch you are not entitled to ask the MAME and/or MESS developers for support, at least not without mentioning the use of this patch! Better ask for support at the PS3 Bodega Forums instead!
