No it doesn't ... that page only gives status for Qt 2.3 - not Qt 3.x -- am I missing something here? Qt 2.3 is aincent, and trying to maintain a (py)Qt project with the unix 3.x codebase while windows is stuck in 2.3 sounds like a big pain in the but.

If all you need is Qt 2.3, this is good enough I guess - but it doesn't cut it for more advanced cross platform open source apps - which is exactly where Qt would shine. The article actually touches on this fact -- licensing being the problem.

Well, this has led me to choose wxPython for my next project, even though I would have preferred Qt. It could be worse, I could be using MFC! :)

"When the official Qt Book "C++ GUI Programming with Qt 3" is released, we plan to include a CD with a special non-commercial "book-version" of Qt/Windows 3.1."

Looks like you can get the non-commercial version, but you can't download it as of yet. However, buying a book seems a pretty small price to pay - at least you get some good documentation, help and software bundled together.
