Insomnia there a three people here who disagree with you. Please re read all the documents in question and make sure you understand the distinction between open, free and Free.
suselinux:
KDE is free and open, but it is based on proprietary software(Trolltech QT --- trolltech.com). The same way that Linux is based on Unix, not the way SCO says Linux is based on Unix though.
From KDE.org
quote: UNIX/KDE constitutes a completely free and open computing platform available to anyone free of charge including its source code for anyone to modify.

TheQuirk:
Linux is not based on Unix the same way KDE is based on QT.
If Unix was a library Linux compiled against, or something, that would be a good example. KDE, though, uses QT, which is a library.
