Thanks Frederik! A short introduction to myself: My name is Richard, I started 
at Trolltech in 2006, which means that I've been working with Qt for more than 
ten years. Most of that time I've been looking into issues on macOS, but after 
the Nokia era, I became a part of the team implementing and maintaining the iOS 
port. Either way, fixing and maintaining widgets has always been a reoccurring 
exercise, and I look forward to taking over the responsibility as the 
maintainer.


-Richard

Emne: Re: [Development] Widgets maintainers

Hello all, hello Marc,

First of all, thank you very much for taking care of the widgets module and
working to get bugs under control.

We've been talking inside The Qt Company about the widgets module a lot
lately, since we do see it as a very important part of Qt, which doesn't
receive as much marketing and highlighting as it deserves. For traditional
UIs, widgets are certainly a viable and good building block.

While we don't anticipate huge changes in the module, we will keep on updating
the styles where it makes sense and take bugs serious. Since it's also a big
chunk of a module, we'd like to propse a team of maintainers, to make it
easier on everyone.

Our proposal is:
Richard Gustavsen as overall maintainer
Gabriel de Dietrich for styles
Jan-Arve Sæther for layouts
Eskil Abrahamsen-Blomfeldt for all text related things
Andreas Aardal Hanssen for graphicsview

Item Views is open and would fall to Richard for now, but if someone is
interested in helping out more with it, that's certainly appreciated.

Cheers,
Frederik
