Re: [Cake] Cake on LEDE - package maintainer required

[Dave Taht <dave@taht.net>]

I have long sought sufficient funding to push cake into the mainstream
and come up empty. Cake represents thousands of hours of volunteer labor
as it is, and everyone that has worked on it deserves kudos...

... and a check...

or at least... a bloody t-shirt. And I mean that both in the perjorative
sense and in the descriptive sense, of being covered in scars.

Honestly, I'd settle for some happy set of users of cake to throw in for
the t-shirt, at the very least.

It's pretty much the default for me 'round here. It solved all the
remaing problems the sqm-scripts had.
