Hi,

I don't think so, and I don't see any benefit what we can have from 
adding people there.

I know that Joel adds himself for some tracking needs
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44278#c4>,
I do no know details.

Currently I can't see any benefit from using that field, I even did not 
know that we have a problem for what that field can be a solution?!

I recommend not to use QA Contact field before
1. You have a problem
2. discussed and agreed on a solution
3. Added some hints in the Wiki
4. Published that.

If everybody indulges private likings that will make queries unreliable.


Best regards

Rainer
