Christian Kandeler is the only maintainer. Ivan Komissarov is the most active developer in that repository and has approver rights as well. We are talking here about the situation that the maintainer has given a +2 while a person unrelated to that particular repository has stopped the patch with a -2. On the other hand, that person has neither shown any intention to implement that feature nor has the person contributed to the codebase during the last couple of years. The question is whether this is an abuse of approver rights. This is a relevant question for the Qt project. Any person with approver rights has the ability to cause a production stop. Ivan is asking for help in this particular case and I am seconding his request.
