[Interest] Contributor agreement rundown

[Quim Gil]

Hi, first just making sure you are aware of qt-project.org/legal.html

Most of the content of this thread is explained there, although perhaps 
less poetically or straightforward.

The core argument is:

1. Qt has dual licensing, open and commercial.

2. Qt Commercial = Qt (from qt-project.org) + more non-OSS addons + more 
platforms supported

3. Everybody here agrees that Qt as in qt-project.org and Qt as in Qt 
Commercial need to be the same, otherwise it's a mess. This is why the 
Qt Project has that contribution agreement, and this is why Digia 
(maintainer of Qt Commercial) dedicates resources upstreaming their 
patches and being a key player in the Qt releases at qt-project.org.

This game is good enough to have organizations as diverse as KDE or RIM 
to agree on it. But if it's not good for you that's fine, you are not 
forced to sign it and still you have many options to contributoe to the 
Qt Project.

May I ask, what is the contribution you have in mind?

And last but not least: Thank You for your willingness to contribute!
