Governance
The Qt Project is a meritocratic, consensus-based community. Anyone with an interest in Qt can join it, take part in its decision-making, and contribute to Qt's development.
QUIP 2 is the Qt Governance Model and is the authoritative text. It describes five levels of involvement and how people move between them:
- Users — community members who use Qt. They report bugs, help other users, and advocate for the project.
- Contributors — community members who provide input to the project, by proposing changes in Gerrit, reviewing, writing documentation, or testing. There is no selection process.
- Approvers — contributors who have shown a sustained commitment to the project and who can approve changes for inclusion.
- Maintainers — approvers responsible for a specific area of Qt, who decide what happens in the code they maintain.
- Chief Maintainer — leads the maintainer group, sets the overall direction of the project, and has the final say when the project fails to reach consensus.
The current maintainers are listed at wiki.qt.io/Maintainers.
For the processes that sit alongside this model — the branch policy, the security policy, the code of conduct, and the rest — see contribute.qt-project.org.
