Qt, Open Source and corona

[Christoph Cullmann]

Hi,

just one quick question about this part:

I have seen no mails regarding this plan at all on the 
qt-interest/development list,
was that discussed/announced anywhere else beside in the discussions 
about this contract?
(or did I just miss that on the other lists?)

Greetings
Christoph
