+ \title Third-Party Licenses Used in Qt
+ \ingroup licensing
+ \brief License information for third-party libraries supplied with Qt.
+
+ Qt includes a number of third-party libraries that are used to provide
+ certain features. Unlike the code described in the
+ \l{Other Licenses Used in Qt}{code used in Qt} document, these
+ libraries are supplied alongside the Qt modules.
+
+ Third Party Software may impose additional restrictions and it is the
+ user's responsibility to ensure that they have met the licensing
+ requirements of the GPL, LGPL, or Qt Commercial license and the relevant
+ license of the Third Party Software they are using.
+
+ Run \c{configure -help} to see any options that may be available for
+ controlling the use of these libraries.

+ \title Open Source Versions of Qt
+ \ingroup licensing
+ \brief Information about the license and features of the Open Source Edition.
+
+ Free (or open source) software is software that comes with a license
+ that gives users certain rights. In particular the right to use the
+ software, to modify it, to obtain its source, and to pass it on (under
+ the same terms). Notice that the term "free" is about rights, not
+ money. The Free Software Foundation (creators of the GNU GPL) speaks
+ of free in this context as in "free speech", not as in "no cost".
+
+ Nokia supports the free software concept by providing the Qt Open Source
+ Edition, which is licensed under the \l{GNU General Public License (GPL)}
+ (version 3) and the \l{GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL)} (version 2.1).
+ You can use this edition of Qt to create and distribute software with licenses
+ that are compatible to these free software licenses.
+
+ The support of open source with the Open Source Versions of Qt has enabled large
+ successful software projects like KDE to thrive, with thousands of developers
+ around the world using open source versions of Qt at no cost to themselves. With
+ the release of Qt 4, open source versions of Qt became available for Unix/X11,
+ Mac OS X, and Windows platforms.
+
+ The Open Source Edition can be downloaded from the \l{Downloads}{Qt website}.
+
+ Please refer to the online \l{License FAQ} for answers to frequently asked
+ questions on open source licensing and its implications.
+
+ More information on Free and Open Source software is available online:
+
+ \list
+ \o GNU GPL: \l http://www.gnu.org/.
+ \o Open Source licensing: \l http://www.opensource.org/.
+ \endlist
+
+ See \l{Licensing Information} for a collection of documents about licenses
+ used in Qt.
+
+ Information about Qt Commercial License Agreements is available
+ in the \l{Qt Licensing Overview} on the Qt website or by contacting
+ the sales department at http://www.qtsoftware.com/contact.
+
+ If you are in doubt what edition of Qt is right for your project,
+ please contact
