If your programs are used in-house and never released, then you don't have to abide by the terms of the GPL. BUT (this is a big but) if you ever release your code or distribute the binary, you must now do so under the terms of the GPL, because Qt is GPL'd and your use of Qt must follow those terms. Another huge caveat is that Qt's proprietary license says that you can only use the proprietary Qt libraries for programs that you developed from the beginning with the proprietary libraries. In other words, you can't develop a Qt application under the GPL and link it against the GPL'd Qt libraries and then at a later date buy Qt and try to relicense your program under something other than the GPL. Note that this has nothing to do with the GPL itself, but rather the terms of the proprietary Qt license (Qt is dual-licensed). > > -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
