Let me get this right... Does this mean that one can make proprietary closed 
source KDE application using KDevelop and KDesigner without having to 
purchase any license? At best i remember qt requiring a license for 
commercial use and KDE apps tend to use QT!?

Or does this hold true if the application uses only the KDE API and never 
the Qt API? I am a little confused.
