Yes, the idea id to open the door to this possibility: 1. A big Qt user investing in Qt and perhaps considering becoming a contributor sponsors Qt CS. 2. One of the incentives in the sponsorship was 1-2 invitations to attend Qt CS, have a chance to meet the project contributors and have a first hand experience.

Canonical, RIM and many http://qt.nokia.com/partners/ . A big chunk of the (short term) future approvers should come from this front, critical for the sustainability and health of the Qt Project. > I'm happy to start going through the list and send manual invitations, > but I'd love to have the mechanized system first such that I will be > able to put emails in with people names so invitations will be sent > and registration will be made through the same web app system.
