It is also a case that Qt is used in a fully proprietary product, and paying the commercial license saves you from learning about the LGPL licensing implications, setup the availability of sources, etc.

In summary, it seems that Digia are to purchase the commercial services part of Qt, i.e. the services that provide professional support to organisations that bought the commercial licence for Qt.

Now lets see what markets think about digia and nokia stocks...
my guess is nokia up and digia down or around the same as before.

All times are GMT. The time now is 00:41.
Example.
1. Support service for Intel. And develop software SDK for MeeGo (yeah!).
2. SDK for Mac App Store.
The current Qt do not fullfill the requirement of Mac App Store. (e.g some path is wrong). If Digia take up the development and make a Qt for Mac App Store. It will attract more people to develop cross-platform application on Qt.
But I wish that the cost will not be too expensive. In the year of 2003, one of my job duty is Qt supporting. I may need to go with sale to demonstrate Qt and ask them to purchase. But the cost is really too expensive...
