Did you contacted Yifei for plasma-keyboard?  I did not see any update 
on#1116351.
If you contacted Yifei: please add a small update to #1116351; it is easier to 
follow, especially if you or Yifei ask for sponsoring the upload. 
If you didn't contacted Yifei, please do so - the recommended way is via 
#1116351, so others can follow.

Btw. from the bug report it is not obvious, that you want to be part of  the 
Qt/KDE Maintainers. The Maintainers line is written like that, but is it not 
expressed in the bug report. As Debian has a strong maintainer role, we as 
team cannot take over a package against the will of a maintainer. So that 
statement must be done by Yifei and you.

Qt 6.10 is already available in experimental, so you can build against that 
version and make sure it builds and is functioning when you are targeting  
experimental for plasma-keyboard. With this we already add it to NEW queue and 
wait till it get accepted into Debian, that is a very valid way. The move from 
experimental to unstable can be done, when Qt 6.10 enters unstable. 

Targeting experimental is also good, as you can also get some feedback and fix 
the biggest issue, before a lot users get it.

Regards,

hefee

PS: there is no need to add my mailaddress in the recipients, as I get reply 
via the list anyways.
