lypanov writes "Trolltech has released Qt 4.0 both under commercial and GPL licenses for X11, Mac OS X and MS Windows. It is the first time that a MS Windows GPL edition is available. To celebrate the release Trolltech employees have created a song and a music video (Bittorrent download, Ogg Theora version). Read the Qt 4 Overview and the online Qt Reference Documentation for more information. You can download Qt from ftp.trolltech.com or from one of its mirrors. Work on KDE 4 has already started with making a development branch of KDE compile and run with Qt 4."

Re:How is this going to work for trolltech? by Blob+Pet · 2005-06-28 14:12 · Score: 5, Informative

The company I work for has over a dozen enterprise-level licenses. We do it solely for the support. For us, it's essentially the same as using GPL code and contracting a 3rd company for fulltime support. Also, if Trolltech ever bit the dust, we've got the source code.
