And this lack of knowledge tells us... what?

What countries does your lack of knowledge tell us about?  And is
that only in the context of a contract, or does it include distribution
without a contract?

You've concluded this from your lack of knowledge?

Yep: they've refused to update their license such that it doesn't
conflict with Qt's.  That's pretty clear: it says that either
we fix Qt's license, or we use something besides Qt to generate
binaries.

Or are you talking about the stuff available on their web site where
they address completely unrelated issues?
