Really? python, python, ruby, ruby.

Did you read the intro to Delbar's mail, describing that they already have a complete tr069 project, for managing openwrt devices, that they want to open source, and want to collaborate on making it more useful for all, and perhaps see if there are common pain points that can be resolved by handling things differently on the lede/openwrt side, rather than working around on the tr069 side? I think it's exciting and I'd love to hear more about it. ansible/salt/puppet/chef have been far too heavy to run, and openvpn servers granting remote shell access is far too tedious for daily use.
