LEDE has it listed at [1] and [2] has the Table of Hardware some more details including a link to the OpenWRT wiki. I've used OpenWRT for years and has generally worked well. A few months ago, I put LEDE on a Linksys WRT1900ACS and felt right at home with it. My current plans are that anything I put a firmware on will use LEDE until the merge is completed. The two projects have definitely been working towards that goal. It looks like the current plan is to adopt the LEDE code base with some cherry picks of valuable things from OpenWRT as well as dropping the LEDE name in favor of OpenWRT. The fact that the LEDE source is most likely the future is why I'm planning on using LEDE on anything I do in the future. The lede-adm mailing list this month has basically entirely been about the remerge. AIUI, the OpenWRT devs have been on there as well and [3] has some of the details. mike [1] https://lede-project.org/toh/hwdata/netgear/netgear_r7000 [2] https://lede-project.org/toh/views/toh_standard_all?dataflt%5BModel*~%5D=r7000 [3] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/lede-adm/2017-May/thread.html /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
