No, I'm not maintaining OpetWRT package, I'm working on core implementation, standard library port, and web microframework currently, so it will take some time for me to make, test, and submit package recipe for it to OpenWRT. Well, that's why I posted - hoping that someone working closely on OpenWRT might get interested. What I did myself is built MicroPython using OpenWRT SDK, made sure it starts up on real hardware, as well as run testsuite using QEMU (running testsuite on real hardware is still on TODO). I pushed scripts I used to https://github.com/pfalcon/micropython/tree/cross ("cross" branch of https://github.com/pfalcon/micropython git repo), unix/build-mips.sh is the build script. Hope that will give an easy start for folks who want to try MicroPython on OpenWRT, and if someone will make recipe out of it, that will be just cool. > > Cheers, > NicoEchániz > -- Best regards, Paul mailto:pmis...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
