Repository names do not have to map to the marketing name of the technology. 
For example, Qt Quick and QML live in the "qtdeclarative" repository, for 
historical reasons.

However, in this case, it's the marketing name that is the problem: you're not 
giving access to 95% of Qt; you're only providing access to QML and Qt Quick. 
So I find that calling it a "Qt Bridge" is misleading, unless there are plans 
to expand to more than QML. In which case, I ask again that someone explain 
how this relates to PySide.

This is just advice and feedback. We have no jurisdiction over the marketing.
