But this is only my humble (and possible dumb) opinion :D
A lot of work that goes into open source projects is actually done by people working at companies and paid for their work, but it's often difficult to get those same companies to pledge formal support, to donate money, or sometimes even to admit that they are using the open source component. And yes they are fickle... PySide certainly got hurt by that after being dumped by Nokia in a way that made it hard to salvage some of the docs and associated info. - Stephan _______________________________________________ PySide mailing list PySide@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/pyside
