Reporting bugs and adding code? Don't bother!
If you are thinking about reporting bugs and adding code – don't.
I did report several bugs, sometimes proposing fixes. I got insulted, and even bugs marked as critical, which would cause the entire QtCreator installation to become unusable, were ultimately ignored.
I don't know what is going on there. They have too little personnel? They might have overstretched (3D and whatnot)? They might have issues with getting enough cash in? I don't know. All I know is that the people there appear to be stressed “beyond repair” and they pass this on whenever you get in contact with them.
I dropped Qt a while ago when I noticed that things were only getting worse instead of better (i.e.: I found the bugs in their code mostly and thus couldn't repair things. I found myself avoiding Qt functionality wherever possible and using it for the GUI only. This increasingly sucked, though.).
