[...and many other ideas...] uuuuhh stop! this is all possible and sounds good, but it drives in a direction where nobody can maintain this. IMHO for further reference the user can just read the wikipage. dont take me wrong. all your ideas are good and helpful to build something really good, but...it's just too much. e.g.: if a target does work anymore: if somebody is interested in getting this to work, he will take a look into git/svn or the wikipage e.g. if a target has multiple brands with the same hardware: just make several wikipages and fillout the template. e.g. if we try to categorize all chips in a router it never ends. so there is a need for such a database (otherwise there would'nt be a discussion), but for which needs? for me: - having a possibility to find firmware-files for the enduser (so we need a table with vendor/model -> openwrt-filename) - searching a router which fits XY conditions, e.g. 5ghz (the question again, how far will you go? e.g.: 5ghz + 2.4ghz + 100mbit 5port switch + 64mb ram + not EOL) and you? bye, bastian. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
