There might be value in having a better review process for modifications to the 
authoritative maintainer list (I believe anyone with a Qt account can edit the 
wiki). Something version controlled via gerrit might be a good idea. Indeed, it 
does go a bit beyond the documented [0] purpose of QUIPs, but perhaps cranking 
out a new repository for a single file is also a bit "over the top".

Anyway, that’s a bit tangential to the topic at hand. But since we are here: if 
anyone has additional notes from the “Ghost Maintainers” session at the recent 
Qt Contributors Summit, please add them to:
