Hi,
We could move the authorative maintainer list to be a QUIP instead of a Wiki
page.
Yours,
Tuukka

Subject: [Development] Proposal to delete the "Maintainers" group in gerrit
Hi,
As per the Governance Model QUIP [1], the authoritative list of maintainers is
the wiki page [2]
[1] https://quips-qt-io.herokuapp.com/quip-0002.html#maintainers
[2] https://wiki.qt.io/Maintainers
We have a “Maintainers” group in gerrit as well [3], which is not mentioned in
the QUIP, and which does not control any access or privileges in the context of
code reviews on gerrit. From what we have seen, the only practical use this
group ever had was for the recent Chief Maintainer voting.

If that is the only or best mechanism we have to control access to such a
voting system, then I’d rather have us create such a gerrit group from the wiki
page source when needed, and discard it afterwards so that we continue to have
only a single source of truth that we need to maintain.
If anyone is aware of any other reason why this group needs to exist, please
share! Otherwise I will ask the gerrit-admins to delete the group.
Volker
