He is approver, the author and maintainer of the QtSerialPort module and has contributed to many other modules as well.
- Spreading knowledge about Qt on the Scythe Studio blog - https://scythe-studio.com/en/blog


As an active user of the QBS build system, he stepped in when this project was handed to the community and provided over 100 patches to improve this project,  especially in regard to bare metal programming.
- Building Polish Qt community with a blog and YT channel targeting students - https://binarnie.pl/


A noticeable amount of patches also went to Qt Creator, foremost to integrate the new QBS features into that IDE. And last but not least he reviews patches in various Qt modules.
- Working on the popularization of Qt framework on SM like LinkedIn
 
I think all that qualifies him to be a Qt Champion.

He always has an eye for polishing the rough edges and to improve processes. Instead of writing bugreports, he often provides a ready-to-merge solution on Gerrit.
 
For all that reasons, he deserves the title for the highest degree.

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.

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=2021-01-01 | grep Author | grep -v qt.io | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
