Hi Matt, fully aware of the issues with licensing of Qt vs PyQt vs PySide2
and are you aware that there are elements of PySide and PyQt that do not
conform to their licensing parameters? Aka they both have elements, I
believe that are covered by the Qt license, and that parts of PySide2 are
covered by the GPL license -- so you have to be very careful which aspects
of Qt you are using even when using PySide2 or PyQt5

Also again thanks for this I greatly appreciate the assist -- not sure if
you all need the any assistance yourselves but I run a free online
lab-like-classroom-like Discord message server for Python-Qt trying to help
folks navigate the troubled waters for Python-Qt coding as there is a lot
of misinformation and just bad information out there on how to use it
properly.  If you would be interested or know of anyone that is just let me
know and I forward you the invite link.
