Qt is the foundation for kde(+libs). If a Gnome application would use=20
Qt, it would use it as a foundation, too.

You said you found it amusing that Gnomes refuse to link against a GPL=20
lib. My point is that KDE also forbids foundation libraries (defined as=20
being in or a dependency for kdelibs) to be GPL, with the notable (and=20
sole) exception being Qt.

So why doesn't KDE's policy amuse you as Gnome's does? Because we don't=20
"run around as GNU..."? Because we _do_ link against Qt?
