The issue is that PyQT is only available under either the GPL or a commercial license, so can't be used for non-GPL applications without paying for a commercial license, which is why PySide was created in the first place. That doesn't just mean it can't be used freely by commercial developers, but also that applications licensed under other open source (but not GPL compatible) licenses can't use it.

But, if you're a commercial dev, just stick with C++. You'd probably create python binaries too, and these are slower than c++ binaries. And coding on-device is not for commercial devs who are closed source. pyqt would be ok.

PyQt 5.0.1 was released in 21 August 2013 with support for QML and Qt Quick2 :
http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/news/pyqt-501
The current PyQt5 download is for v5.0.1 :
http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/...pyqt/download5
The "Development Snapshots" PyQt5 v5.1 is also available, compatible with Qt 5.1.
So, PyQt 5.1 will give Python access to develop softwares (with GUI) for Sailfish, Ubuntu Touch, Android, iOS, etc. Obviously somebody needs to compile & package PyQt for them.

Hey thanks for the heads up man. I just built the current snapshot of pyqt5 and it seems to work just fine with qtquick2. So for all you python coders out there it's just to start port to qt5/sailfish. Btw, anyone knows if Sailfish is still using python2?

I'm using gpl3 so no problem for me. If you want to make non open source apps you should use native code anyway. Pyside seems to be more or less dead so for me pyqt will do the trick on Sailfish.
