Hello folks,
we're always looking for ways to get LibreMesh "closer to upstream", and 
one (old) idea is merging somehow our packages into OpenWrt.
(i remember briefly talking this with jow at battlemeshv8 in Porto, but 
in the end, we lime-devs never actually looked up on how that would 
happen, until now)

Currently we maintain a custom feed git repo at
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages
and what we would like to achieve in the end is that those packages 
become available in the official downloads.openwrt.org servers, 
basically.

as far as i understand, we have two options (in decreasing order of 
desirability):
1) make a proposal (PR against this[0]) to include a new feed in 
feeds.conf.default, uncommented so that the packages inside are by 
default compiled and published along with other packages (luci, routing, 
telephony...)

2) alternatively, make a series of pull requests adding each of "our" 
packages to the standard "packages" feed
https://git.openwrt.org/feed/packages.git

is there any other option i'm missing, or caveat regarding those two 
that would help us decide? (i.e. would a PR against feeds.conf.default 
be acceptable?)
