I'm sure someone has run across this but I was unable to find it on the Trolltech FAQs. Also I know this is a silly question, I just want to make sure.

If I have an open source project using QT Open Source, as long as I provide the source, can I provide binary distributions for the different platforms?

Yes. The condition is that if you distribute binaries, you also have to distribute the source from the same location. And include a copy of the GPL.

Hey Michiel,

Thanks for your reply. I'm a double/triple check kind of guy, especially dealing with the GPL and the different interpretations.
