[Interest] Indie Mobil Program terminated?

[Pau Garcia i Quiles]

Hello,

The indy license has been re-introduced until August 31st:

But it's still not good IMHO. Let me paste my pending-moderation comment
here:

I can’t believe this. The new licensing has been managed in the poorest way
I have ever seen.

First, Indy and Professional (i. e. affordable for indies and small shops)
licenses are gone.

Now, Indy is re-introduced, but with a sell-by date (August 31st). And no
reasonable alternative after that.

Does Digia realize the *only* sales you’ll get are from developers who were
already quite advanced in development and cannot afford to re-develop their
apps with a new toolkit?

In light of the lack of alternative for the future, I would not buy a
license for developing a new app. I would rather look elsewhere.

What if I need more licenses in the future? What if I need to use the Qt
Purchasing APIs or the QML Compiler? No choice but the USD 350/month
license.

Also, what about the Professional license? Why is that one not
re-introduced?
