[OpenWrt-Devel] How can I help TL-WR842N Hardware version 3 be merged into Chaos Calmer

[Ronaldo Afonso]

  Ok, Aaron,

  I'll take a look at the LEDE part of it.

  I have a "private OpenWrt feed" where I develop some "private OpenWrt
application"...

  If a have to port this feed to the LEDE platform, should I expect a lot
of changes?
