> Hi,
> 
> we'd like to introduce LEDE, a reboot of the OpenWrt community
> .
> 
> The project is founded as a spin-off of the OpenWrt project and shares
> many of the same goals.
> 
> 
> We are building an embedded Linux distribution that makes it easy for
> developers, system administrators or other Linux enthusiasts to build
> and customize software for embedded devices, especially wireless routers.
> The name 'LEDE' stands for 'Linux Embedded Development Environment'.
> 
> 
> 
> Members of the project already include a significant share of the most
> active members of the OpenWrt community.
> We intend to bring new life to Embedded Linux development by creating a
> community with a strong focus on transparency, collaboration and
> decentralisation.
> 
> 
> 
> LEDE’s stated goals are:
> 
> 
> - Building a great embedded Linux distribution with focus on stability
>  and functionality.
> 
> - Having regular, predictable release cycles coupled with community
>  provided device testing feedback.
> 
> - Establishing transparent decision processes with broad community
>  participation and public meetings.
> 
> 
> 
> We decided to create this new project because of long standing issues
> that we were unable to fix from within the OpenWrt project/community:
> 
> 
> 1. Number of active core developers at an all time low, no process for
>   getting more new people involved.
> 
> 2. Unreliable infrastructure, fixes prevented by internal disagreements
>   and single points of failure.
> 
> 3. Lack of communication, transparency and coordination in the OpenWrt
>   project, both inside the core team and between the core team and the
>   rest of the community.
> 
> 4. Not enough people with commit access to handle the incoming flow of
>   patches, too little attention to testing and regular builds.
> 
> 5. Lack of focus on stability and documentation.
> 
> 
> 
> To address these issues we set up the LEDE project in a different way
> compared to OpenWrt:
> 
> 
> 1. All our communication channels are public, some read-only to
>   non-members to maintain a good signal-to-noise ratio.
> 
> 2. Our decision making process is more open, with an approximate 50/50
>   mix of developers and power users with voting rights.
> 
> 3. Our infrastructure is simplified a lot, to ensure that it creates
>   less maintenance work for us.
> 
> 4. We have made our merge policy more liberal, based on our experience
>   with the OpenWrt package github feed.
> 
> 5. We have a strong focus on automated testing combined with a
>   simplified release process
