Had I known this existed that would have tempered my outrage on the
FLOSS show a little bit.

Moin,

initial scan of the tree ...

CONFIG_TARGET_ipq806x_QSDK_Premium=y
CONFIG_GCC_VERSION_4_8_LINARO=y  (the 90's called, they want their gcc 
back)

CONFIG_PACKAGE_wnc-hal=y --> winstron appears to be the TW based ODM

CONFIG_LINUX_4_4=y

# stat qca/src/linux-4.4/

/src$ diff -urN stable.4.4.60.git/ starlink-linux.4.4.60/ | wc -l
622648

this appears to be a patched version of qsdk 11.2 or 11.3 SFP based upon 
a pre-historic owrt 15.05

CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-qca-wifi-minimal-profile=m using the qsdk wifi driver

funnily there is no package/base-files/ in the tree and grep'ing for 
"init.d" in the tree yields no promising results.
leaning out the window, the GPL drop appears to be incomplete.
