Nokia buys Trolltech/Qt:

Damn it you guys, if we would have released 1.1.8 in time, those 150  
million dollars could have been ours!

:-) :-) :-)

I am happy for Trolltech, but I hope that this acqusition will have no  
negative impact for the Linux community who relies so much on Qt. I  
doubt though that Nokia would work against that huge customer base,  
just to get a cell phone gui. On the other hand the question is, how  
intensly will Nokia be going toward Linux and will they start building  
bigger PDA style devices (like the Newton R.I.P.) or even Slates,  
Tablets, or the Nokia super thin notebook (Nokia Air?).

Anyways, interesting times. Makes me wonder if for the sake of "break  
on the table", LGPL is the right licensing scheme... :-)
