    Hello, i've read about Qt licenses, and got question about "Qt for device creation". Is it possible to create and sell device with Qt inside under Open source license(e.g. no "Qt for device creation" and no "runtime fee")? Of course i'll share all source code.

    As i understand - no, for device you must be license("Qt for device creation"), at least for small business, and buy "distribution" license anyway to sell devices.

    Is that correct?

    Thank You

        @raven-worx Do you know if there will ever be a open source license for this?

        Would like to go open source and use buildroot instead of Device creation with the current distribution license costs..

          i personally do not know and also don't think there will be an open source license.
          But you should ask this rather on the mailing list.
