&quot;community-driven&quot;, or<br> &gt; &gt; what you would want to see in such a \
project.<br> &gt;<br>
&gt; To me, a community-driven project means it is developed by a community in<br>
&gt; the open, such as on GitHub, as opposed to behind the curtains. It means it<br>
&gt; has a higher bus-factor, which at the moment is 1.<br>
<br>
This has always been a bit of a pain point for PyQt for me - what&#39;s<br>
the rationale behind the repository not being publicly available? Is<br>
it just for historical reasons, seeing it started somewhere in the<br>
1990s I believe?<br>
<br>
I&#39;d really appreciate if PyQt was developed more openly, and had an<br>
open repository, bugtracker, and some means to contribute.<br>
<br>
I think this would make a big difference with people preferring PySide<br>
(even with Qt4) over PyQt, and I&#39;m sure there are many people who&#39;d<br>
appreciate helping out with PyQt. Hell, I&#39;d even sign a CLA to do so<br>
(as long as it was somewhat fair, of course).<br>
