Wait, what? O.o

Tue Apr 20, 2010 3:00 pm
I keep my eye on the Planets (GNOME and KDE) and I found something that rather startled me, a few developers posted not too long ago (cant remember the links, they are on my phones RSS reader) on Planet GNOME indicating thier disdain for QT...mainly because it wasn't under a copyleft license...now, to the best of my knowledge, QT is GPL now, isnt it?

On a related topic, a few programmer friends told me they felt creating GUI's for QT was far easier then for GTK+, anyone care to comment?

Qt is available under the gpl or lgpl license (or a commercial license). Whoever was saying that is using information about a decade out of date.
