Slow return to pre-Nokia business model?

Yes... Not that you said that, I realize this change might even affect my current customer. They're making a thingy that uses Qt for its embedded gui, and they don't have a commercial license. And it's pretty locked down. But they probably would have had to get one anyway, since they need the QtQuick 2 software renderer (which, btw, performs beautifully on this hardware, the performance is indistinguishable from the QtQuick 1 graphicsview renderer).
