As one of the world's largest vendors of modems and routers for carrier applications, making use of OpenWrt in a significant share of our install base, we want to support this initiative in a meaningful way. Concretely, we are willing to open source Technicolor's in-house TR-069 solution and thereby contribute to OpenWrt:

Thank you for your proposal and offer. I think this effort and workshop are
great news. I'm also looking forward to see if more companies will decide to
join CWMP/TR-* discussions and more importantly at the end of the day
have a stable and well defined TR-069 stack implemented in OpenWrt!
