To clarify myself, I realize that I erred after clicking send.....<br>

If Dominik is ditributing a standard version of paraview, and his
plugins are only vtk/cxx/etc with no Qt custom panels, then it is safe
to distribute freely and all is well. the distribution should refer to
the source location of standard paraview, and the custom plugins can be
closed source.<br>
<br>
If there are custom panels using Qt code, then the Qt license becomes
necessary if it is not GPL.<br>
<br>
Better?<br>

The terms of the Qt license allow, GPL compatible, or commerical. So if
Dominik is making the source code available to his users, he can
distribute freely as GPL, if the source is not available, then he
requires a Qt License.<br>
<br>
I no doubt have oversimplified it and await correction from others.<br>

<pre wrap="">I am not an expert on this issue, but it seems like you'd have to buy
the commercial license to the qt gui libraries.
