Hi, I am Tarek. ndb and I had discuss about the hardware support documentation for LEDE. So I send these proposal to create a asciidoc documentation nearly similar to the OpenWRT table of hardware. The idea is to create a Main table were users can fast and easily search for devices. Each device should also have an extra device specific site were even more technical information should be found (same as ToH).
One big problem in the OpenWRT wiki is, so nbd had told it to me, that many device specific sites were just copied from other ones and were not good rewritten so some of these site had wrong information about the devices. I think the main problem of this above case is that any one can edit and fill information inside the wiki without reviewing from a another person. This problem should be fix because in asciidoc, developers and persons who want write documentation now have send patches that had be reviewed from a person that has access to the git repository. The device list inside the Main table can maybe auto generated out of the source and also the download images urls inside the device specific site can be auto generated. I build those auto generated links also with checksums for ouer Freifunk Nordwest specific download site [0]. But that is an details discussion if this proposal had accepted. I think thous device table inside the documentation is very important for the usability of the LEDE project and should be realise as sone as possible. If anyone have some better ideas for documenting device specific informations pls write it here. Also some feature ideas or potential problems will be very helpful. cheers Tarek [0] https://wiki.nordwest.freifunk.net/Router/Hardware
