Hi, Let’s also take up the formal part of the request.

Privilege revocation requires a two-thirds majority vote of those Approvers and Maintainers who express an opinion.» [3] On 14 Sep 2021, at 12:34, Richard Weickelt <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: 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. Ivan and Richard, do I understand you correctly that you’d like to have a formal vote of no confidence according to QUIP-2? Please understand that this clause is meant as a last resort, when other solutions have failed. We will also need to consider that the Qt Governance Model only defines global Approver rights for all of the Qt Project. The request was however limited to QBS, so we would need to find a way to handle this. I can only see two options there, either we start extending our governance model here (can be done with a lazy consensus on that extension), or change the scope to the whole project having much more severe implications. Ossi, I (and probably others on this mailing list) would also like to hear your view on this. As I stated in my previous mail in this thread, I strongly believe, that the people doing the actual work decide on the direction and individual changes. The Governance model states the same, the maintainer takes the decision in case no agreement can be reached. As far as I can see, your actions are conflicting with this. Thank you, Lars
