Qt going LGPL!

All I can say is wow.  This is a huge change and a step in the right direction.  If Trolltech (Nokia) was looking for a way to really push Qt adoption, this was it.  

Of course, just moving your application from commercial to LGPL or GPL to LGPL will take some work.  You will need to keep in mind what you need to do to comply with the LGPL license and if that's even the best move to make.  So think before you decide on the license to use.  I am very excited about this change because of the opportunities it opens up.

All I can say is going to be a great year for C++.
