Qt is not a company. Qt is an open source project owned and sponsored by Digia and also Nokia, though Nokia's participation will probably be reduced now that Microsoft has bought Nokia. Two years ago, at least, lots of code commits came from outside Nokia. Now, PySide was originally a Nokia project when they owned Qt, and I know they did have contributions from the community. I don't see any evidence things have changed. Your logical reasoning is certainly faulty on one point, however. Why would you claim wx is forkable but PySide (or even Qt) is not? Both are completely open source and free software (as in LGPL). -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
