But if I take QPLd code and add it to your GPLd application, you will demand that I release it under the terms of the GPL. Why is it bad that Troll gets to choose their licensing terms for their works, but good if you choose your licensing terms for yours? If you submit a bug fix to one of my applications, which are under the BSDL, I will refuse them if you insist that your fixes be GPLd. I will not let you subvert my copyright or licensing. Just as I have to follow your rules when working on your applications, you have to follow my rules with my stuff, and follow Trolls rules for Qt. I just don't see what the problem is. David Johnson
