It's going through the packages repo according to

The distinction is of little imprtance to the outside world. You will
have poemgr in OpenWrt.
poemgr is set to land in the packages feed. I don't have stakes in the realtek
PoE business
and poemgr is more or less the result of a weekend hacking around the specific
device (USW-Lite).
I didn't fully catch up what the ultimate goal around PoE support is, but
having the ability to
control the ports in the first place being it with a non-preinstalled tool from
the packages repo
is a good start where we can iterate upon and either integrate support for an
additional PSE controller
with it's quirks or aim for an extension of a kernel subsystem.
That being set, the goal of poemgr is not to replace the other efforts. I'm
sorry if I caused this impression.
Best
David
