In reply to: Fork Qt by mightyduck
Parent article: Nokia to acquire Trolltech

It's premature to assume that Nokia will mismanage Qt or that a fork will be necessary. Nokia deserves the benefit of the doubt.

However, should they try to take Qt in a proprietary direction, I would expect many of their newly acquired employees, especially the KDE folks, to leave the company. They would have no difficulty finding employment elsewhere.
