I'm not quite sure what information you are missing on that page?

I didn't specify if it should be a playground project or not. No matter 
if it's playground or not, both versions are "add-ons" which other may 
include in their builds if they want the functionality.

Neither playground nor non-playground add-ons need to support all 
platforms, though if they want to be in the Qt Essentials set of 
modules, they do.
