Timeout :) of course (...I hope...) anyone is free to use KDE's matrix 
and create Qt-specific channels in there.

But:

1) that doesn't mean that KDE is *endorsing* the #qt- channels on its 
Matrix instance (for that, I'd expect an official KDE decision, 
nominating someone from Qt to take care after those channels, etc.etc.?)

2) That doesn't mean that the Qt Project is *endorsing* its presence on 
such channels (for that, we need a Qt Project decision, then a KDE 
decision, etc.etc.?)

3) That also doesn't mean that KDE's Matrix will be bridged to 
Libera.Chat's Qt channels instead of/as well as Freenode's (was such a 
decision already taken, or does it depend on the decision from this thread?)


Thanks,
