Ok. Let me bite.

In <2217724.thNANPicTR at tjmaciei-mobl1> you stated "Ossi and several others
are right that qbs was never given a proper chance. It hasn't"

Above you stated that contributions to QBS could even happen inside the 
Qt Project.

Active part of "giving [some piece of software] a chance" is promoting it
on some webpage.

Where would a QBS-promoting webpage be located?

qt-project.org ?

Oops.
