Some info of possible interest to list members who also plan
to (or do) dabble with OpenWRT. I'd been toying recently with
building OpenWRT natively under FreeBSD, but my Google-fu
failed to reveal the necessary "how to". So, I had a student
but it out. We've put up short description of how we prepared
FreeBSD 9.1 to support OpenWRT's build system:

(There are some limitations of our scheme noted at the bottom
of the page.)

cheers,
