Topic	Speaker/Moderator	Format	Comments
Example: How Can We Improve xxx?	J Doe	Discussion	We currently struggle with YYY and we want to find solutions for it. We should come up with an action plan.
Licenses in Source Code	Kai Köhne	Presentation / Discussion	Announcing SPDX changes, discussing next steps (qt_attribution.json file format)?
Ghost Maintainers	Andy Nichols, Paul Tvete, Eddy	Discussion	There are Qt modules that have maintainers who are largely absent, yet we have no formal process for handling this situation.
How to create a great Qt tutorial video	H Humaljoki (facilitator)	Workshop	At the end of the workshop, we would have gathered best practices on how to create great video tutorials about Qt. The participants would know where to start in creating their own learning content.
What's new in QML (non-visual) tooling	QML team	Short presentation, Discussion	Learn about upcoming features in qmllint and the QML language server, and make feature requests/suggestions
Coroutines in QtCore	Giuseppe D'Angelo	In-depth technical Discussion	We have at several in-flight patches trying to add Coroutines to QtCore. I'd like a very long (ideally multi-slot) session to discuss and experiment with the API of such a thing, including adding coroutines support for QFuture ("heavy") coroutines directly to signals/slots ("not so heavy") coroutines + QThreadPool support misc.
QtScrypt	Cristián Maureira-Fredes	Presentation/Discussion	Some time ago, I wrote a hackathon project to enable Python scripting within C++ applications - the outcome was cool :). Due to the similarities, I decided to call it QtScrypt, because it kind of follows a similar idea as QtScript, but with Python. I would like to present the proof of concept I have, and if it's interest from someone else to start the development and create a proper project out of this idea.
qt-project.org	Cristián Maureira-Fredes	Presentation/Discussion	I had many ideas on how to improve our project website, but didn't manage to implement them. I'd like to present the current version of the code that generates our portal, the plots, and everything, mainly to look for people that will be willing to help improving the site! This is a good idea for first-time contributors to jump into a simple project where there is a lot to improve ;)
The Qt Community	Pedro Bessa	Presentation followed by Discussion	As Qt's Community Manager, I plan to (re)introduce my role, my own approach and the plans to push the Community further. What does the Community Manager do? The Current State of the Qt Community The Qt Community Roadmap: Our Plan Forward
C++20 in Qt	Fabian Kosmale, Marc Mutz	Discussion	We already had some discussion about usage of C++20 types in our ABI (see https://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2022-January/042151.html). However, there are still further things that we should discuss: Are there non-ABI impacting changes that we should do? E.g. marking classes as views/ranges, supporting new std types where necessary, etc. How should our testing story look like for C++20? Currently, we only have one gcc build for C++20 in our CI Do we want to mandate C++20 during the lifetime of Qt 6 at some point? Can we (think of embedded platforms)? C++ modules and CMake? How will it impact us?
