Qt is truly free. It's GPL, GPL, GPL. If you're not happy with them also providing a propriety/commercial version, then you can fork the GPL version and release it only under GPL.
True, true. I think the problem many people have with its license isn't that they provide a commercial license, but rather the fact that they *don't* provide an LGPL (or similar) that allows you to freely use it in a non-GPL project.
If Linux wasn't free it wouldn't have a hope in hell.
Of course not, we wouldn't even know about it. Its development has depended on that very fact for over a decade.
Seems to be a great way to produce good software. And will continue being so.
