Why? I think that it is fair. Why a Free Software developer should buy VC++ licenses to build free Qt? It is nonsense. "gcc" works under Windows, and that is enough. > I guess a lot of this licensing crap will change when Qt4 GPL is > actually released, but it's still looking like commercial Qt is the > only "easy" way to go, and the Trolls are just making a "difficult" GPL > version to shut people up! What is the matter with you? When Qt is released GPL for Windows, with the support from Trolltech, if they do not give you a ".exe" version of Qt, then someone should compile it. There is no need to compile it every time. I think Trolltech is right. If can afford Windows and VisualStudio, you can also afford Qt. Or maybe you are a "pirate". -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
