Qt5Uploader
I, Simon Quigley, apply to be a Qt 5 Uploader in the Ubuntu project.
Who I am
I'm a 15 year old living in Wisconsin, USA. I have had a passion for computers ever since I was 9, starting out by learning some basic HTML on a Windows XP machine, growing my knowledge and passion from there.
My Ubuntu story
I installed Ubuntu in February of 2015 after breaking my Windows 7 install, and was instantly attracted to the development side of the project. I wanted to work with others to develop software, which was always something I wished I could do but didn't have any interested friends. But, after reading the Ubuntu Packaging Guide, I was stuck, some steps didn't work, and that discouraged me. So I gave up.
I then joined a Lubuntu IRC channel that July after finding out Lubuntu ran better on my computer. I joined that community, started working on other projects within Ubuntu such as the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, and I worked to get Ubuntu Membership on February 4th, 2016.
From then on, I expanded my contributions, becoming the Lubuntu Release Manager, helping run the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, and a few other contributions listed on my main page. I also became a Master of the Universe on August 28, 2017. I continue to do various tasks within the community as a contributor outside of my development work.
Examples of my work / Things I'm proud of
- I directed the Qt 5.9.3 transition and am directing the 5.9.4 transition with little to no help from others.
Areas of work
- I work on the Debian Qt Team to ensure that the Qt packages stay up-to-date and in a healthy state, and have worked with them to complete the Qt 5.7.1 and 5.9.1 transitions.
In Bionic, the packages that I do not have upload access to are the following:
- qtbase-opensource-src
- qtsvg-opensource-src
- qttranslations-opensource-src
- qtcreator
So while this application is for upload access to the qt5 packageset, in reality, it could be considered just adding those four packages to the list of packages I can upload.
According to the Sponsorship Miner, here are the packages that I have needed sponsorship for that are in the qt5 packageset:
Here are additional package uploads found via https://wiki.debian.org/UltimateDebianDatabase that I have either uploaded myself or have landed via the CI Train:

In the Qt 5.9.4 transition that I am preparing right now, I will need qtbase, qtsvg, and qttranslations sponsored. Having this upload access would allow me to do the transition completely by myself.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 During the last release cycle Simon has been helping me a lot with transition from Qt 5.7 to 5.9. This cycle he does most of the maintenance work himself, including transitioning to newer 5.9.x releases and backporting patches from upstream. He definitely should have upload rights for all of Qt packages. Specific examples of working together: the transitions I mentioned above are the main and large examples. They are usually happening via silo PPAs to reduce brokenness period of the main archive. We are usually coordinating our work on #ubuntu-qt channel. The code lives on salsa.debian.org and I regularly review Simon's changes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEbEPcK+5mZmLK5jNU1v5xA2P4XdMFAlqSs98ACgkQ1v5xA2P4 XdO2Cg/9Gr50ozJ7lfQNLEZ+MxT7djikcXe1jCgltKaw0VHaCo6zxUmvbmEXvcQy wWOY2R3GrJ0DCWFtXdD3yPCiR9ltIWy3irxG0px3UhHaByHYQxxKXg2L5hM95Wva 9Lb6j2MXoKPnyeZAaGWq3QiwE8JincbiRowDy6HBlWNGh/fFcu1C8p3L+d5w/YsK rwBwavnxajZSDMoRjhX6eXsjkhK5tMi9NaCRxFS6pyspmk2VIMHWarlig47Wqz1C PsYa9VPyXwfHqjlh39FVg7QaaFLTdt5Dy3B1kjKDa3ft3snrNVzDxkoUzXH/sPQU o8zzECGqZbPPQOh0c928nyZ8Yyc03aPY81IAD377V3GygadMTTYf0Q/Po6cN69xe hXa4K09Cd+FMj0C3M1/IWC/dgDj56B2gGFLOnWWig377EXAgFuoidUn0SxUHOr4P yeJji054hxTgQBBAoNAWSqrnWB4Nd30C72sM+G0t5dGmiZBtNmRG0Ai+5L/nzNqp sPzQtI3I7p3AQBfJ6lgMBmWUJkMS8F4f3Usn1BebTgzG2tcqwGChR73Bn6IGF92s kgrpfu5LuaP8XqAz6lFwOrjTalVWIkiQop72I062+8pJ0L1p+xTUrt1G4C/Qo7JT 5qy6bRatHfNVTN/ZxownFCQY3k7lqX/hY7sOz2BIAZ67J3CD13M= =Df1U -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 During the last year, I helped Simon by sponsoring qt packages (specially for main archive, because he became MOTU between the first and the second transition). I sponsored some qtbase uploads, helped him and reviewed his work. We did the 5.7 -> 5.9 transition (with other people), and a minor 5.9->5.9 point update, driven mostly by himself. His qt skills are great, he commits the work in Debian repositories, caring about having a syncable stack, and he is quick in fixing regressions and backporting upstream commits. Now we agreeded to have a delta for bionic, because 5.9 is LTS upstream, and the 5.10 in Debian might reach EOL before it. - From the next release he will probably transition to a mostly no-delta 5.10 or 5.12 release. I trust his qt stuff, and most important, I'm happy with his work, because when he is not confident about something, he asks other people for help. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJak7WfAAoJEPNPCXROn13Zqd8QAIwoI5vJMNhpj4TjjfPj3IAm 8arTTZGQ4gUAR0+ThZ5xANM2aEwE/+RdhXwclFd28Pzv4sDUoRHZeuPnBKkwTtv3 IVWhxmSRV0aAzSElOVTc/eubVbYhn8uQn2DIFpvhqlhFIs9gUi9y/92y5X2CCw96 +aOWqjTXFA0cPBnqYuobD1Ja+l98YFmMm7gsIkFgJgNaQhyHR+Dgta9k/fFQdcmH wdMpMeQKseRpVKDuygomEe/tdqacPxitGzRM1HBK9G++SP3gs1ZAnhzQEKtuUQnH evc15OsIxrTWppzw3rOZUwdnF06m820PGdNTdLy9E1CHujmNRhw0nnkBtq714X7G ElHO23BqQ65Vc+44ZXwo6h+aUUecrMry7OVy/TFjUDmnkfaTfK4FZ6LxJATCmna9 JoCC0gkmmm/ab5W3ycC7sfQMesgcqklJiD7yOhjmiXAmRAWXkHShCcogiv0NJjhD 7QfM+gI2E6a5yu8ZcPZ+zcoxpRHhxPCM+azIAXjr6pbJylDq9RFL3LTDpRtbhGUe hdcPMj+dnuc4Wcw5qQExI85YRbGNvNf1s8SncMsPXg8S27/uEYG9XJ41Bxqharve llKEAeNVSXGcbFRPbWggr863TrE0RpydxKiGWRLJ/3Ycb2XSESxKT+PWZ4kwA+B6 F7Si72flOJNXmtRos65V =MH8d -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 I enjoyed the interest and support tsimonq2 showed during at least the last year of my Qt maintenance work and also during the offloading of my tasks in spring 2017. He seemed competent, with good communication skills and I was happy there were several good persons on the community side with interest and time in the continued maintenance of Qt in Ubuntu – where Qt still somewhat deviated from Debian even after cleaning up the Ubuntu Phone related extras – and Debian where the major work was being done. Specifically we at least worked together in studying and resolving various package migration blockers related to Qt and KDE packages. Then at some point late 2016 he wanted to help with Qt maintenance in Ubuntu and to learn as much as he could. He already knew a lot though as he had staged Qt releases in a PPA and had contribution rights to Debian Qt/KDE repositories. I didn't need to be worried that with my non-existent free time and new day-time work I couldn't contribute anymore for now. And it seems he and others have done a great job, I'm particularly happy seeing Qt LTS point release in Ubuntu LTS! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJak8agAAoJEOD3WfeQvdIHlLoP/imD1gz3u453OwGOcDo+6Lq0 4U2pA2+DSsw8UFGWDRGREO+QX6nllpSo4joixC9WGfu+wgIb9y02vxtDyVN/j3fn THRXvHrJiA4iG+nk4ph8Fde3e8+cR/SSTuxVxS9BeIKz9YsI80Keyt9F57RkqdZX ItHYkhsLiYQXcypHqjnK4rGZFDoYAqOuU8HNVnC0wetBgR83ZOUzKRT62ywAKOx6 jk1w0H0Mm5g3WX0jcQjHD9Z9NV7qHbyxuhitUFw/x30Isj7mzp/AbexUCOxKA95c gJqDOaDkJ29NglBZrrybAxo6THJGC8r+Na+Cp4g3B66yGwP4oAafBmQ/2XC34D/X 1IgsDbLyjwfgObjDTwdOl6HHgfrss4JwOOqN1l9P1/Uono10Du24QdBfy8l6T4px KYUluFgWvR/rSObdv4ckRGl81mHp3egyPgQX3HmvSti+cj5W3FNtbZVZehb61hkJ qSYY1Alb4xv4OGgygRQ7BgN6F9p9L8xq0ZOAYyB6TzZe0C2NpHvYT0CZC76B9m/L 2SHu6RWCIKxw3a4jQkIh8lTj31ViZFkfzZACFBkC8mMWcBN5M+WtbcFgg1OvDUCA iTEurTgG5E2m9nBYWQ4tieNYjuDku/PTQDvQW7QoMmEVJUU20VT/j0mHHHx78o0w f+R0V1LFFe3qf3x5H8Au =eKmA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 I fully support this application. Since Simon has been doing that majority of maintenance and transitions for Qt, I have noticed few major problems, and where they have existed they have been handled in a professional and competent manner. I would echo the comments from others that Simon does not hesitate to ask for help and advice where this is needed, and his judgement as to when this is required seems sound. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJak8iOAAoJECKgS++RaLrVESwQAJWkUp9+pX3eyYm/yJEu+i54 R2fOj+O+pCvdkNXM6d+3B1UojAMGTxhOM8EbeOGOYb0xY3uzFfcOHC8hrAGd9uDv sIZ4eQWAVggS1hjWy2PXrbR2g3QVPJmafgUOBtRtryScy/0WR+BxDD48DoFzTc4s 1s8Y+UdA10dqg7wR8RAyn0OUnVx+OgCo6ZSZwcrWY9IK+uB+KaGGIKfTVgYhD+7o yXnz+CLSy5TuItluy/3lrarLpb4XvJZreY3YCAziOvHIbEjsihfoUEKg8AdrA9zf H2is5mgAVBy1v/Zk1ZLm4g5uq7dn2LylrESypR9h9qJCMbn4RMlKkHdWHYhQKg+y yn3SWX1XyseFVPsB/ogLZ1EM5iNOHoAsy5pXivsyU8Pg2lzITGrZ4Pf4wnQhzQfY ZyFw7wOOedkXEOXp9qhcq994PpP+3/IDBvCH+M1zyKcMlGtg+5yFSSWtWSay18My rXyLtjD5pXNp2qRjO015p+D1KLt38JRjqnyDXNJSOGiMc6TSA6XGyegSBnkr0RJq gLz0+APFbaZu7oUbCavvNBc11cp6NLfzAdzY6lgDFiWMz4S9UlSv5cjEJUebgjX/ 2er7P6Z7JSv1iq9orE/46j5c8weN65bw+dz5xno1Rxn8I3z9o0AMJ/aMHeK6utob ISQagLdo/5pfBSa05H11 =F7CB -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
