If that were the case it'd be no problem since the GPL is an OSS license. However the QPL has to be made available under the same terms as the GPL to satisfy it. Same terms or less, but no more. Problem is, the seperate patches requirement is not going to work with the GPL. Troll Tech MIGHT be willing to change that, we can ask at least. All they can do really is say no they won't change it. -- Show me the code or get out of my way.
