OpenWrt One / project update

[John Crispin]

Hi,

Just dropping a quick update on the  OpenWrt One project. I've received 
the first batch of three PCBs for testing today. I am in the process of 
testing the hardware to make sure everything works as intended.

There are twelve further early prototype boards on standby in case we 
need to tweak anything hardware-wise. You can find some pictures showing 
off the PCB from different angles at these URLs:

Work is underway to establish a website where all legal information and 
links to our sources will be provided. Keeping everything transparent 
and accessible is crucial for us.

MediaTek also generously released a substantial amount of programming 
manuals for the SoC used by the OpenWrt One which will be made available 
shortly.

I would like to express my gratitude to the Software Freedom Conservancy 
(SFC), our manufacturer (BPi), the silicon vendor (MTK) and fellow 
developers for their support throughout this journey.

         John
