[Development] Stepping down as QDoc maintainer

[Lorn Potter]

Hi Martin,
You don't look anywhere near 0x46!

I also think you might be the person who has worked in the most Qt based 
offices, but I could be wrong.

After 25 years using Qt (Qt license 0 at METIS), the last 13 of those years maintaining QDoc, first at Trolltech, then Nokia, then Digia, and now at The Qt Comany, I am about to become the first guy to retire from Trolltech, et al, because of old age (70 on Jan 14).
