So I don't think it has really changed anything in terms of business. I could be wrong - only someone familiar with the various deals within Nokia/Digia could really answer that, but that won't likely happen. Ben _______________________________________________ I disagree.. In my experience, creating the LGPL version swept in a HUGE uptick in commercial applications using it... The only reason I know of that smaller companies bought the commercial license was for support. And if they were my clients, and I gave them the support, there was no need.
