I see your point of view and thank you for this.

Of course, I would like to distribute this extension with the GPL licence.
If I want to use Qt is because this library is a very power toolkit and I
use it everyday as PHP. I'm checked on Internet and I do not see if
somebody try to implement this binding, like PyQt or PerlQt etc...
Of course, it exist PHP-GTK, but I prefer Qt than GTK. But I don't want to
begin a discussion between this two toolkits, this is not the goal,
everybody prefer what he want.

In a first step, my intention is to have this extension on Linux system and
after also for windows and other, but first on Linux.

I thing that we can build very porwer tool with PHP and Qt.
