I didn't mean PyQt in a whole but only PyQt for windows. I guess that without 
TheKompany, you wouldn't have got a Qt windows license that allow people to 
distribute programs that uses Qt under windows and unix without paying a 
single fee to TrollTech. I was surprised that TT had allowed such a thing 
because it breaks their business model. It makes more sense now.

And the license cost significantely less than a windows Qt license (or that a 
Qt dual license).

Anyway, congratulation to you and TheKompany for this. I hope TheKompany will 
get so much income with this good product that they will manage to get plenty 
of other Free software ready for us. :-)
