Hi,

Go to #qt-labs on Freenode and people might be able to help you with 
Git/Gerrit.

If you don't find anyone able to help you, ping me (sahumada) and I will 
be happy to help.

Cheers,

[facts]: just check "[Development] typo in docs" email, it took just 
three hours to realize how Gerrit works and get the typo patch integrated.
