Hi.

Maybe, you can to consider some "yum-yum" for attraction of community maintainers?

For example, to allow them to use the commercial license in own purposes, or, something else. ;)

Hi,

It would be very good to get more contributors and maintainers also from the 
community and companies who offer Qt services. Lately we have had some 
community maintainers step down and replaced by people from The Qt Company. 
This is fine to some degree, but we should also have new persons from the 
community and ecosystem step up.

Overall the amount of community contributions to Qt is still around the same 
30% as it has been. So we have not been getting any better or worse in that 
regard.

Yours,

        Tuukka

Let's do some math. There is around 160 maintainer positions in Qt (a quick count of <tr> on
     the maintainers wiki page)
Many maintainers are a maintainer as part of their job duties. Not many
     people these days have the same job for more than 5-6 years. If it takes
     1-2 years to get to a state to become maintainer, that leaves around 4
     years as a maintainer.
If we assume that the maintainer is around for 4 years and there is
     effective 10 months per year, then we should have 4 replacement
     maintainers each month.
I'm not sure I see something worrying in numbers alone. /Sune _______________________________________________
