from reading the meeting transcript it seems that we still don't have
straight answer regarding QtLocation 5.6 ("checking at the moment").

They were not wordy, but my interpretation is that nothing has changed regarding QtLocation 
being allowed in store apps once it's upgraded to a stable release, i.e. >= 5.6. 
"Aiming to have solution for it in the first quarter of 2017" doesn't sound too 
bad, I was worried we were at a dead end.

However, I don't see the changes in the source code indicating exclusive
role of LGPLv3 among LGPL licenses. The LGPLv2.1 license is still there for
QtLocation module (see https://github.com/qt/qtlocation).

Indeed. There's a license change commit in the source 2016-01-20, but that's 
saying it would be from 5.7 onwards. And that commit is not in the 5.6 branch.

https://github.com/qt/qtlocation/commit/71dabb5dc330a47d91ee917ca60c871a88e8a42a

Reading various other unclear sources, I see 5.5, 5.6 and 5.7 all mentioned for 
the change -- maybe it was pushed back a few times? I have found no web page 
that would actually list the licenses under which Qt modules are available. Can 
anyone from Jolla comment? Do you have better information?
