Why do you think that there exists a public version of Qt that is usable with
MS Visual Studio? Qt is a product of Trolltech. That society can continue to
develop Qt only if non-free users buy Qt. MS Studio is not a free product,
and thus Trolltech assumes that MS Visual users are not users that make free
software.

Let me remind CGAL users that CGAL itself is free only for users that make
free software. The free version of CGAL is released under the
Q Public License, that allows only to make free software. If you want to make
non-free software, you need to buy a commercial license. See
http://www.cgal.org/license.html

Best wishes for 2008.
