Excuse me, but if KDE developers will have to follow equivalent steps as described at http://qt-project.org/wiki/Setting-up-Gerrit to contribute, then I predict another big loss of developers.
This information could be pared down considerably and presented much more nicely - and would have to be if we decide to use gerrit. In addition, kdesrc-build could automate some of the local setup (Qt's ./init-repository script does as well) to get people started faster. I agree the barrier-to-entry with gerrit is high, but I don't consider that Qt page to be up to our standards if we were to put serious thought behind communicating the use of gerrit. Keep in mind though I've raged quite a bit about gerrit's UI in this thread, and yes, this is part of it. I think gerrit's useful, but I don't enjoy using it, personally.
