No, it is open source. The source code is available for free, the compiled binaries are expensive (but it's neccesary to contribute linux users with free binaries, typically). If you are interested in a fully free program similar to QtiPlot, I suggest downloading SciDAVis, like I did. —Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:Contributions/87.1 72.210.76|87.172.210.76]] (talk) 09:44, 9 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Beware, this product is not a 'clone' of Origin, and is not a 'complete alternative' as it is claimed. You can open an Origin project file but cannot save in that format, which makes it useless to share files with the much, much larger community that uses Origin.

Not GPL/OSS anymore edit

According to a personal e-mail that I received from the author, the newer versions (e.g., 0.9.9-rc12) are not released as GPL anymore and source code is not available. I would like to correct the information here, but am not sure how to do this since the source is not third-party verifiable (there is e.g. no such information on the homepage).
