 Hi,

 I hate fanfare.

 You can all thank Luis Rodriguez for his ridiculously long and hard
 fighting to get this stuff pushed through the grinder to make this
 happen.

 There's also been a hard working team of developers behind the scene -
 Felix Fietkau, Eugene Krasnikov, Sujith Manoharan, and the team from
 Cozybit. They've been working hard to get the codebase converted over
 to using the open source tensilica toolchain and finding/fixing up any
 silly issues that may creep up from that.

 I've just been involved in shepharding this stuff into a sensible
 shape and pushing it through the final stage (legal review) before
 publication.

 You can find it here:

 https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware

 There's a bunch of sorely needed work to do in the short term:

 * felix has a replacement cmake build system that I'd like to now integrate;
 * there's lots of build warnings which need to be removed (and then
 build this thing using -Wall -Werror);
 * some general code cleanup and documentation wouldn't be rejected -
 but I don't really want any sweeping code changes to go in until we've
 tidied up the build warnings and validated that the image(s) work
 right.

 I plan on doing some test builds shortly. I plan on bumping the
 firmware to 1.4 once felix's cmake system is in place and people have
 validated that this work.s

 Thanks,



 Adrian
