Yes, that is correct: it's a closed-source app. The plan was to have an initial free beta period using open-source Qt, then switch to a commercial Qt license when the paid version is ready. Getting bug reports is worth the loss of a few possible sales.
However, if Qt Group wants to back-charge for the development period as Thiago mentions, then we'll probably just stick with the open-source Qt license. Is it cool to ask about hiring subcontractors on this forum? The command-line app build process sure isn't beginner friendly. Probably best done by someone experienced with it. Thanks, Casey McDermott TurtleSoft.com *> I'll let Casey confirm, but the way understood it, the license switch question was regarding the license under which they use Qt.* *> I.e. they were planning on* *> - Freeware but closed sourced/proprietary license for app + Qt under LGPL during beta phase* *> - Commercial/proprietary licemse for app + Qt under commercial license when they're out of beta and ready to make money* *> So the app would never be open source.* *> Please confirm Casey.*
