We are yet to see an official line from LEDE on what they want to see to happen in OpenWrt (setting aside the FUD some LEDE members have shown on the list). The IRC discussion did not happen due to being unable to work out the timezone differences, the conversation on the mailing list did not move forward - this is obviously an issue on our side as well.

We have stayed away from committing to OpenWrt trunk to keep a clean sheet according to this, to let LEDE members cleanly and easily merge their changes. (Apologies to all contributors for not pushing their patches so far). Luka - as no objections but only praises were received - plans to do the proposed github move later this week, which will help with the workflow for contributors.
I think you're distorting Felix's words here (Felix correct us if we're mistaken), and making up an excuse for the fact that none of you wants to take over with the work that the so called former OpenWrt members did.

This is a sensitive task, especially for those of us who lack commit access to OpenWrt. Moreover I'm not going to ask blogic, jow or anyone else to spend their precious time backporting my LEDE contributions to OpenWrt.

> - Ask the LEDE members to tell us about terms and wishes for reunite. Currently there is no official word from LEDE on this, which is quite confusing.
Do you really want to reunite? I haven't seen any official word from OpenWrt either on this matter... (dead end?)

Glad to know this. Who's going to this time consuming work?

Please specify who the "OpenWrt team" is.
I think it no longer reflects the people stated here: https://dev.openwrt.org/wiki/people
