Hi David,
Daniel is working on splitting the mount_root, block, extroot and all
the other mtd/block related tools to a new repo called fstools. While
doing so we are doing some cleanup of the code. i expect this to hit
trunk within the next week. Once this is done we will add nand specific
features to the repo. Once that is done, openwrt should have proper
support for ubi including functional sysupgrade support (using
ubi-format) ...
John
