For those of you that don't know, the QT license is still a problem.
With the license, you can only develop proprietary software for QT IF you pay Troll Tech. This is one company with a toll gate, collecting for the work of everybody. Those comercial applications are using the whole system, not just QT.

So, even if you think that it is ok to charge for comercial use, I think we can all agree that all the money should not go to just one company contributing a very small part.

Please, do NOT use QT, use GTK. Thanks.
