I have never made *demands* that Qt be placed under the GPL.  That
is not even my ideal wish, which would be for libQt to be LGPL'ed.

Troll Tech is welcome to to make libQt into traditional proprietary
software as far as I am concerned.  In signing the qpl-qt petition
along with the 400+ other signers, I want to convey my preference for
a GPL'ed libQt over a QPL'ed libQt, and I carefully worded the comments
that I included in my addition to that petition to identify which of
the advantages I listed also apply to any GPL compatible set of
copying conditions.
