Getting involved in the OpenWrt ecosystem

eschultz

Hello, my name's Eric Schultz. I'm from prpl Foundation, a non-profit open source consortium, sponsored by a broad range of companies. One activity of ours is supporting the OpenWrt community through our prplwrt working group.

We're working to increase collaboration between our members, the OpenWrt community and the broader open source community. Some of our activities are:
* Organizing regular meetings of the OpenWrt core team, ecosystem and companies.
* Sponsoring OpenWrt hackathons
* Organizing an OpenWrt conference at ELCE this year
* Simplifying the process of maintaining an OpenWrt derivative like you’ve done with FireWrt

We're incredibly impressed in the work that you've done with FireWrt: it looks like an amazing board for developers and router manufacturers alike! I'd like to invite you to participate in our collaboration and see how we can work together to make OpenWrt more successful and better for your needs in creating developer platforms.

If you're interested, I'd love to chat with someone at Firefly and see if we have common interests and goals.
