That is really nice to hear. For me personally it looks like the remote
management with TR-069 and similar protocols is one of the biggest
extensions commercial vendors add to the user space of OpenWrt to make
it fit their needs.

In addition to the TR-* family does this also include support for SNMP,
MIB, NETCONF, YANG ?

That's good to hear, would it also be possible that other interested
people can join such a workshop?
