The Qt Project is about to launch

[Announcements] Posted Sep 12, 2011 22:51 UTC (Mon) by corbet

The "Qt Project," being the new governance structure for Qt, has announced its existence. "Since the Open Governance Model discussions started in July 2010, we have worked closely with the community to restructure the code base, design the governance structure, prepare the tooling, and define a contribution model for individuals and companies. And, we are excited to have a system in place that will be rolled out just five weeks from now."

Some more information can be found in this supplemental posting by chief maintainer Lars Knoll. "I want to make it very clear that the foundation will not steer the project in any way. The foundation is in place only to cover the costs of hosting and run the infrastructure. All technical decisions, as well as decisions about the project direction, will be taken by the community of Contributors, Approvers and Maintainers. For example this means that people in Nokia working on Qt will start working with Qt as an upstream project. Everyone will be using the same infrastructure, including mailing lists and IRC."
