Hi Jonah, I'm not part of the Qt Company, so please consider my comments as discussion only ;-)
I'm the maintainer of the QtFeedback module, at least insofar as I am willing to review commits and keep things building. Sailfish OS uses this module, which is why I am still interested in keeping it working etc. Specifically in the case of QtFeedback, there has been no active development on it for a long time, as you mention, although no doubt many improvements would be possible given that we probably need not maintain BC/SC at this point... Given that the rate of change in the repository is so slow, why is packaging from git snapshot difficult in this case? And what sort of development do you see likely to occur, should it move under the KDE umbrella instead (and, out of curiosity, why could that development not occur under the Qt project?) Best regards, Chris. On Sat, Apr 24, 2021 at 7:12 AM Jonah Brüchert <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm one of the people working on the Plasma Mobile project.
