What's this about? What is a release maintainers configuration?

After the 5.0 release there presumably won't be API changes.

Just create incentives put examples in the same place. If people don't put them in the right repo anyway, they're creating issues for themselves because their stuff won't appear in the SDK examples for example, or won't show up in the examples list in the docs. _______________________________________________ Qt5-feedback mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt.nokia.com/mailman/listinfo/qt5-feedback
