Qt is not truly free yet. One key characteristic of Free Software is to
allow code reuse, and QPL does not allow reuse of Qt's code (i.e, you cannot
take a part of Qt and put it into another program like porting the painting
interface to gtk).
QPL is taking advantage of a bug in the Open source definition.
