this is a joke. If I modify or enhance QT - then they can compel me to contribute such modifications to the community. But how can they compel me to release software written using QT? and further compel me to release it under the GPL only??
"The Open Source Edition is freely available for the development of Open Source software governed by the GNU General Public License versions 2 and 3 (“GPL”)."
apparently this means that QT itself is not released under the GPL - the open source edition is released to 'develop open source software governed by the GPL ...'
So I cannot use that to develop software I release under, say, BSD license!. So what license is QT released under?
