Some facts: - Debian Qt/KDE maintainers are involved upstream by providing patches and support for non-popular architectures. - Our work is the base for a popular Linux distribution (namely Ubuntu) and benefit to a larger community than Debian itself. - We're working actively to provide the best Qt support on ARM architecture (see the work done on armhf; involving Linaro, Ubuntu and KDE) - We'll be represented at the Qt Contributors’ Summit, an invitation only summit, to discuss about Qt future and the Open Governance. Also, I would like to update "Amount of support required" section: instead of linking to Debconf sponsorship, put the facts directly, including sponsorship level. > It is also interesting to know if Debian or individuals part of > Debian are part of the > Qt Ambassador Program [3], that information would be interesting to > add to the wiki page. > If Debian is not part of that program, why not and could Debian be part of it? As far as I know, we aren't part of the Qt Ambassador Program (Debian or individuals). The 1st step will be to fulfill the mandatory requirement: public projects that we can show in our Qt Ambassador showcase. For example, running Qt on Debian isn't sufficient.
