PyQt is as free as free software can be - BlackAdder, which is based
on PyQt is commercial, but also includes an IDE, a GUI designer and a
good debugger. But you can download PyQt, compile it on any platform you've
got Qt libraries for, and do with it what you want other than claim it's
your work, or forbid others to distribute it.

It would be interesting to try and get Qt/X11 to compile on OS X, now that
XFree compiles there. Maybe use KDE's Acqua theme to get the right
look and feel... I wish I could afford a Mac to try it out on.
