... and the coordination of at least 400 owners of a Raspberry Pi with 
Qt 5. See what is growing at 
https://wiki.qt-project.org/QtonPi/Device_program/Accepted

See also the first emails at 
http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/qtonpi/2011-December/date.html 
Most mentors and participants subscribed to the QtonPi mailing probably 
don't have a specific interest in following the development of Qt itself.

Not sure, depends on each project. When the mailing list is the only and 
transparent channel of communication for developing the project itself 
you do generate traffic. Imagine for instance all 
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/necessitas-devel/ landing in 
[email protected] - not really useful.

Everybody agrees that Qt 5 development topics go here. I plan to direct 
to the DevNet forums any questions related to pure Qt app development. 
Still, we expect a decent volume of QtonPi project development topics 
not fitting really anywhere else.
