yeah, I wondered about that too.

Currently there's one release valid for both annex variants with no
dsl firmware at all. Adding both blobs to that is probably out if the
question due to its size.

John mentioned an existing mechanism to ship B per default with an
optional patch on to top to morph it into A, iiuc [0]. That might
work, I haven't looked into it.

an openwrt release with a matching name would be less confusing.
