Ohh, forgot about the extended availability of indie licenses. Anyway, I do agree 100% with Nuno, most of people I talk don't even know about Qt. Qt is an amazing framework, QML is fantastic to build UI, but it's missing the point to let more people know about it and I don't think that removing indie license is a good move in that direction.
