I think the reason qt.scm is part of the lxqt team is historical; lxqt-team
predates qt-team.  We should probably just remove qt.scm from
lxqt-team's scope.  What do you think?

I'd keep both team separated; I'm interested in maintaining qt upgrades
but not much lxqt.

that sounds good to me as well; and I would then encourage 宋文武 and
Hilton to join the Qt team, too.

I don't know about Qt...  My existing commits to qt.scm are all fixes to package
definitions, so joining the Qt team doesn't sound suitable.


Thanks

Hello, I have just pushed 2 commits to remove qt.scm from the scope of
lxqt and add myself to the qt team.

Happy weekend!
