[PyQt] licensing

Hi all!
Maybe a bit offtopic and theoretical question:
Suppose I'd like to write an app in python and Qt. I evaluate the
possibilities, and see, that pyqt is more stable now, so I decide to
begin coding with it (with the free version). When I make this
decision, I already think to wait for a more complete/stable PySide
binding and distribute my code which uses PySide (with a less
restrictive license). Or I first release it with PyQt, but later on I
find PySide, which has a less restrictive license.
Is any of the above cases the violation of the License Terms? So is it
legal? Is it fair?
And consider another case: I begin to write my app with Pyside, and
later release a version with pyqt at some point. Can I later release a
newer PySide based version with license compatible with PySide (which
is not compatible with pyqt's license)?
Yet another case: I do a prototype with PyQt, and than hand-convert it
to Qt/C++.
Thanks
Gergo
