Dear Jonas and Philip,
Thank you for your effort to move things forward.
I’ve put the same set of PR’s out 3 times and not received so much as a single
review comment.
Some of the PR’s are pretty trivial and low-risk.
I took a look at your PRs. I am not part of the OpenWrt project and
thus cannot do anything related to them.
@Jonas, you can review them and add your review comments and also add your
approval, if you think that the PR solves an issue and is in good shape.
Therefore, more eyes on a solution, the better it is.
Thus contributing to the overall effort to maintain the project and the
components.
Most people are doing this because the care in their spare time.
Forking leads only to more fragmentation IMHO.
Unfortunately to my knowledge there are many commercial downstream users and
even whole foundations, with, to my preception, little giving back to the
upstream. OpenWrt.
This is my view as a contributor, based on discussions and commit sign-offs.
So yes, I see your point, if you might not see progress.

PS: Looking a the OSS license list of my DOCSIS modem and seeing many familiar
names from the OpenWrt developer community, makes me feel an effort well spend.
OpenWrt is running low on active people with commit rights. Also not
everyone knows all the good well.
Like Goetz said it is very helpful when other people also review pull
request. This is working pretty well with PRs admin new boards.
Add a comment and mention if you think something should get changed or
if you think it looks fine. If you see a helpful PR and tested it in
your setup please also comment and say that it works fine for you and
describe a bit what you tried.
