Announcing the Qt Automotive Suite

Yea, that was my understanding of it also. I think they are trying to make the argument that once the your code is written under LGPL, its LGPL forever and can't have another license.

Your code is never under the LGPL though; you are free to license your code as you please. It's the binary you release that being linked to a LGPL library is subject to its conditions.

If that was true, then QT would violate this principle itself and could not sell you a commercial license.

Qt doesn't violate this principle, cause it is double licensed, Digia is just not using the LGPL version.
