The idea was to fade out ar71xx after the next release and only accept
new boards for ath79. However i'd been fine taking that step as of now.
i have noticed that the ath79 patches far out number the ar71xx ones. we
have lots of patches that migrate boards and i have seen a few new
boards added only to ath79. lets see how the thread goes, looking fwd to
hearing opinions...

Rather than further duplicating efforts, I'd 'encourage'* ath79 only submissions.

Is there a viable way to "sysupgrade" from ar71xx to ath79?

Even if it would require a model-by-model "update map" for the lower-level stuff (LEDs, switch ports?, etc), that would be valuable. Otherwise, it will be difficult for people with fleets of ar71xx devices to remotely switch them to ath79...

afaik this works ootb, if not its easy to make work. it was indeed one of the primary concerns in the early stages of the task
