How to contact devs ?

Hi all. i am currently finishing the port of the B3000 for vanila openwrt. i have a few things i would like to clarify before submitting the final pr. Specifically, in regards to certain file inclusions from the infra-builder, necessary for the port. Could someone from the devs team or staff, that is qualified to grant this request please send me a dm or point me in the right direction for inquiry ?

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for your contribution to the open source of B3000 Vanilla OpenWRT.

  1. Do you need infra-builer codes or this file?
  2. Are you an individual developer? Or to connect with us in the name like a company or team?

Hi there. I am just a individual dev, I have the port complete. My only concern at this point, is that I need to included the uboot flash.scr in the build, to enable uboot webui upgrades and recovery in the openwrt firmwares. I was granted access to the infra-builder, back in October when I began the port. I originally used the flash.scr file from the infra-builder sources to enable uboot as mentioned. Since I have discovered how to extract the script directly from the firmware image via dumpimage. So the file is, to some degree at least, publicly available One of the reviewers of my pr implied that this file and its contents may possibly be under GPL ?? I just do not want to cause any conflicts of interest, so with that, i would like to invite a GL dev to visit the pr thread, or more specifically, the package I have created to provide the said file.

Heres is the link to the pr for the port of the B3000 --> qualcommax: ipq50xx: add support for GL.iNET GL-B3000 by TheRootED24 · Pull Request #17903 · openwrt/openwrt · GitHub

And here is the link the the package/file in question --> GitHub - TheRootED24/glinet-uboot-scr

If a dev could just take a browse ... and if there is anything questionable, make me aware and I'll simply remove it from the port.

Thanks

excellent! thank you for you're swift reply. The B3000 will be added to the OpenWrt lineup very soon, just waiting on reviews now.

One thing that is new and exciting about the port of the B3000, the firmware's file we be universal. Both glinet .img file and the openwrt .img file, can be used to upgrade or recovery, via any of the available upgrade methods in either firmware. Openwrt can be flashed from the glinet webui, luci, uboot or cli ... and vice versa using the glinet img file in openwrt. As far as i know this is a first, and i can say from using it first hand, it is such a treat.

Cheers
