Christian Ehrlicher Rookie of the year One of the most prolific non-Qt company developers for the past year, 74 tickets were closed by Christian in Qt 5.12 alone. His commit history is impressive especially considering he only started late last year.

If this wasn't enough he is an active code reviewer and Helps users on the forum.

Jonas E. Hjortlund (mrjj) Community Builder One of the most helpful contributors to the Qt Forum. His gentle and understanding approach combined with a deep knowledge of the framework helped countless users over the year. It's not a coincidence he ranks only behind Lifetime Champion Samuel Gaist in absolute upvotes on the forum.
André Hartmann (aha_1980) Quality Assurer/Developer The commit history speaks for itself, Andre' not only helped massively on the source code side, particularly in the development of Qt Creator and the serial module, he's also super helpful in code reviews and active in the social spaces to help other developers. His contributions are well designed, and his reviews are thorough. Never approves without actually testing the feature.

He constantly improves Git integration in Qt Creator. Most notable contribution this year was replacing the Branches dialog with a sidebar.

He might not be the most prolific contributor in terms of quantity but he's always involved in the hardest problems that show up on the forum and offers invaluable insight to solve them, using his sharp eyes to help debugging difficult threading issues and his great insight into Qt inner workings. He is always ready to dig in and find the real culprit in complex situations and provide guidance in handling compiler issue with a profound understanding of the tool chains at machine level and is always willing to give that knowledge to others.

What is expected of a Qt Champion

A Qt Champion is there to show what the Qt Community is best at.

The Qt Champion is friendly and has shown active participation with the Qt project.

Limited time only

Once you are given the title of Qt Champion, you will hold the title for a year.

If you achieve the title for three years, you will be entitled for a lifetime title. If you are so committed to the project, you need to be recognised beyond a normal Qt Champion title.

But I get paid to do this! / What if we are a company?

Yes, some of us are paid to work on Qt by our employers. Mostly on the code base, but also testing, documentation and other essential work goes on in the project. Some of the people who do get paid to work on the project do so above and beyond the normal limits of their day jobs (coding all day and helping newcomers in their free time, for example). We need metrics to find these people and provide them with a Qt Champion title too.

Tools to help figure this out

To find the top non-Qt-company contributors in a repo:

git log --since=2018-01-01 | grep Author | grep -v qt.io | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
