Nikos,
Actually that is incorrect. You can use commercial if you previously used Open Source but it’s on a case by case basis and you need to get approval from the Qt company.

Incidentally, we will also need FDA certification for this product. This is all a bit preliminary. The product is still in development. I’m in touch with the Qt office in Boston as well.
