From what I understand, opens source are only latest version, so > 5.15.2 will be only for commercial since 6.0 is out. So they only support open source for the latest release. But the trouble here is that 6.0 is not fully completed yet, which make it kind of trouble some.
So for what I understand. 6.2.x where is x will be open source until 6.3.0 is out, after that no more. That would make sense in case 6.0 a complete replacement of 5.0, which is not yet.

Dear Tuukka, As an open source developer who has used Qt since 2009, I am still a bit confused as to what versions of Qt6 that my open-source project should be using over time? For example, we might be lucky enough to port to the 6.0 release, and then to 6.1. If 6.2 is LTS and commercial only, what is the next Qt 6 version that an open-source project would jump to? Would that be 6.3? Is TQtC going to do something like the “odd (6.1, 6.3…)” releases are opensource but the “even (62, 6.4…)” releases are commercial only? Is there a longer term roadmap available that explains TQtC vision on how this will work? -- Michael Jackson | Owner, President BlueQuartz Software [e] mike.jack...@bluequartz.net<mailto:mike.jack...@bluequartz.net> [w] www.bluequartz.net<http://www.bluequartz.net> From: Interest <interest-boun...@qt-project.org<mailto:interest-boun...@qt-project.org>> on behalf of Tuukka Turunen <tuukka.turu...@qt.io<mailto:tuukka.turu...@qt.io>> Date: Thursday, January 7, 2021 at 4:38 AM To: Giuseppe D'Angelo <giuseppe.dang...@kdab.com<mailto:giuseppe.dang...@kdab.com>>, "interest@qt-project.org<mailto:interest@qt-project.org>" <interest@qt-project.org<mailto:interest@qt-project.org>> Subject: Re: [Interest] Qt 5.15 pull out of open source?! Hi, Apologies for not sending the mail also to the interest mailing list. This is nothing new, as this was announced in already February 2020. Otherwise Qt continues to be available for open-source users, but the long-term support releases of Qt will be available only for the commercial license holders. First commercial-only patch release being Qt 5.15.3 planned to be released in February 2021. Qt 5.15.2 continues to be available for all users, so situation is similar as with Qt 5.13 and Qt 5.14, for example (no new patch releases). Qt 6.0.0 and subsequent patch releases, as well as upcoming Qt 6.1 and Qt 6.2 etc releases are also available for open-source users. Eventually we will enter long-term-support phase with Qt 6.2 LTS at which point again these are only for commercial license holders, but all releases done until that point continue to be available for all users.
