We had a session discussing what a more complete foundation around Qt would be. There were plenty more discussions outside this session. The summary is that there is will towards having a foundation, but there's a lot of work to be done before we get there.
My notes: * Qt Project Hosting Foundation is a Norwegian foundation tasked only with running the Qt Project public infra ** Website, forums, JIRA, Gerrit ** Does not include CI * Foundation is an idea from 2013, evolving the concept of the Qt Project ** for example, some customer companies would like to contribute financially somehow * Scope: the infra to run the Qt Project, technology marketing * Budget estimate: $1.5 million / year * With technology marketing activities, can the foundation be a non-profit? * What is the objective of this foundation? ** Ensure infrastructure does not disappear overnight ** Ideally, including the CI infra too ** Logo and trademark? ** How much budget should the foundation have for? 1 year worth of costs? 2?
