Note: Qt is GPL, WxWindows is (modified) LGPL. Obviously, there are potential licensing issues with creating a new implementation modeled after GPL/LGPL code. Studying the interfaces and documentation is probably fair game, but copying from the source has license implications for your library. On the other hand, if you create a derivative work that links to low level classes of one of these existing libraries, you could release an initial prototype under the matching library license, then later replace the low level classes with your own and change the license to a boost compatible one.
