GPL libraries:
BibleMemorizer uses libraries available only under the GPL. This means that you must follow all GPL terms (in short, you must provide source code and any modifications must be made available under the GPL.) However, if you wish to include portions of the code (excluding from the Sword plugin) in your own programs, you are not required by my terms to use the GPL. Just keep in mind that Qt and Sword DO require this.
What this all means:
You are free to make, use, and distribute as many copies of BibleMemorizer as you wish, and you can even charge for distribution if you so choose. However, when distributing the full version, you must provide source code and comply with GPL terms.
