We explicitly do not want to make releases<br>

Making a release means having to use of a version number, and any version number we use will be wrong.<br>
<br>
Don't think this as a product, think of it as a central place where patches are collected.<br>
<br>
If they want a tarball because using git is a problem, they can always use <a href="https://invent.kde.org/qt/qt/qtbase/-/archive/kde/5.15/qtbase-kde-5.15.tar.bz2" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://invent.kde.org/qt/qt/qtbase/-/archive/kde/5.15/qtbase-kde-5.15.tar.bz2</a> ?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Please note that automated services should not use the /archive/ endpoints provided by Gitlab - they're for human use only.</div><div>The recommendation here would be for distributions to periodically manually download snapshots (using the above endpoints if they wish) and then upload those into their systems.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
