    To RMS : Is this the only remaining GPL incompatibility in the 
    license ?

I found one other possible incompatibility today.

The crucial issue is that this is a worse kind of incompatibility
than was present in the older (November) version of the QPL.

The older QPL made it impossible for the combination of Qt and your
program FOO to be covered by the GPL; if you want such a combination
to be allowed, you could allow it by giving permission for FOO to be
included in a combination with Qt on the basis that the QPL requires.

The new QPL imposes requirements on your program FOO itself.
