Aha, just the kinda thing that I was looking for....

I've actually got a preliminary "TFO Considered Harmful" written, but
was waiting for their RFC to be published.

Gettys had invited me here (from TCPM WG) some time ago, and I actually
bought a pair of WNDR3800 last February specifically to run CeroWRT.
But then the release seemed very unstable at the time, and I stuck with
the Netgear code and gave one to a brother.

I am now running sugarland.  I'll start submitting proposed patches
(tested on a spare linux box, not risking my access to the net) via
the Issues.  I'm patching against .../stable/linux-stable.git, but it
compiles as 2.8.0-rc3+ -- is that what CeroWRT is/will be using?

I was looking for a .git repository and compile instructions, but
didn't find anything under Documents or Files.
