Yeah, this is good news (although not really news, since it was
announced at least ~6 months ago ;-)). But yup, now there are a lot of
software that can now reach a lot more audience. If I'm not mistaken,
the Trolltech guys have made some tool to upgrade the existing QT 3.x
code to QT 4, but I don't doubt that that will also include a lot of
painful rewriting/debugging of great portions of the code ;-)
