Hello All.

I am the main maintainer of the project QtSerialPort (at least I him was earlier), 
and I made the decision to leave the project.

The Reason is banal: I have different points of view with the person Laszlo Papp - we won't work 
well together, alas...

After I added this person to the project and provided it the rights approving - it gradually 
started blocking made changes as mine, and other people without a good reason (in my opinion).

He considers that its judgement - is truth and permanently ignores judgement of other people 
about some issues. I don't like such situation, but I can't undertake anything.

Permanently promises to make some decisions in the best way, but over and over again he is that 
busy and simply ignores them in future. As a result, he only promises, but doesn't offer any 
alternatives, being covered with the some phrases and excuses, like "I planned to refactor 
it...", "I planned to make it on another way...", "You wrong...", "I'm busy..." and so on.

As a result, the patches (that resolve issues) will be or abandoned or blocked. And users don't 
receive timely fixes.

I was tired to argue permanently with this person who doesn't want to accept judgement of other 
people, this is the person with very difficult nature (for me). I consider that I made a big 
mistake when provided it the approver rights for QtSerialPort earlier. 

As a result, since this person considers himself is highest than all others, I made only the 
right decision - to leave the project. 

I was tired to worry permanently about the project, to do support on the forums, to argue with 
this person, etc. If he is such smart, I consider that he will be able independently to pull 
the project (probably he was plans - team lead (king and god)).

So, Thiago, Lars, Sergio, please delete to me the approver rights for the QtSerialPort project...
(or who shall do it?)

PS: I regret that so quitted, I hard got my decision... I don't see perspectives of my 
involvement in this project at current moment. 

Sorry, All..

Best regards,
Denis
