I probably expressed myself poorly there. :) FWIW: the first idea I had was to simply count the activity of private "qt" repositories on invent.kde.org which kind of presupposes that people use invent.kde.org as a convenient backup of their local work as well (kind of the default Gitlab/Github mindset). That might not hold, especially not if people have 'direct' committer access to repos hosted by the Qt project itself. The main thing is that before deciding to jump in we should probably first figure out how many contributions and how many contributors we can currently sustain and then re-asses our options.
