I, too, look forward to putting energy where it matters.

However in reply to your point, how could it? When the first stable release was made mere months ago.

The last patch that was submitted by QCA to add support for IPQ40XX, was submitted to LEDE.

I simply hoped, that since there was a shake-off that catapulted all the great things which resulted in LEDE, that this new name made more sense to what the project hopes to represent as a whole, regardless of this perceived "brand value" and all that.

Likewise, OpenWRT while more recognizable than LEDE, is not worth as much as people here paint it, and will only remain relevant as long as people keep using it. Market/brand concept (in retail) doesn't really apply.

I'll point out that just last week we had an official contact from the Open Compute project to OpenWRT looking to integrate OpenWRT for dealing with wifi devices in Open Compute.

Open Compute is a pretty significant project that's expected to keep up with technology. If they do not know of LEDE and think of OpenWRT for the purpose, it shows that LEDE has not make the progress that you think it has in name recognition.

But in any case, the decision has been made, it doesn't really help to keep arguing the name issue. There's enough other work to be done.

I'm glad to see this progress and look forward to the remerge happening.
