After Nokia purchsed Trolltech last year, doubts arose about how Nokia would handle the dual licensing model of Qt, the advanced cross-platform toolkit which lies at the base of the KDE Free software desktop. As it turns out, these doubts were unfounded, as Nokia today announced it's going to add the LGPL to Qt's licensing model, starting with Qt 4.5.

Indeed! This is excellent news. At the very least, it will allow GTK+ to use Qt code. Hopefully it'll be the beginning of a more unified desktop "plumbing".
