In essence Qt Creator will be GPL (with exception) from here on out. This

Strange; change from LGPL to GPL without any discussions.
Peter,
If you read contributor agreement carefully, in 3.1 you grant non-exlusive rights to the
code you've contributed to The Qt Company "under license terms of The Qt Company's
choosing including any Open Source Software license".
Thanks for the reminder: I forgot I already sold my soul ;)
Is this again the idea, "if we don't GPL our code someone else earns MY
money" misbelief?
Please take a bit of time and check whether the patches change the copyright
in
unintended ways, especially if you have contributed code to Qt Creator. I
think
I managed to keep all information in the headers intact, but please help to
make
sure. Checking and double-checking all this information is tedious work and I
might have done some unintended changes.
Please also check your license template: Please use the one we ship with Qt
Creator in dist/copyright_template.txt (after adapting the copyright
information
of course)! This file is already updated in git (master branch).
The first patch of the set is here:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/146218/
Please help reviewing the patches!
The commercial plugins that are effected by the agreement are currently
getting
a similar license update and will get merged into the master branch once that
is
complete.
Best Regards,
Tobias
