I thought that in this context, "commercial" means that you can keep
your code closed-source.

Additionally, I've been told by someone on IRC a few months ago that
developers must download the commercial Qt sources if they want to do
commercial development, even though they already have a valid and paid
commercial license with Trolltech. Surely it shouldn't matter which
source archive you download as long as you've paid for a currently
valid license?
