well done.someday, i will public all source code.
thanks a lot.

I hope you are not mad at me  Kiss

You must have known it was only a matter of time before someone found this. Especially since it is clearly documented in the openwrt wiki.

Why don't you just publish the source now? I don't really see the problem. You will just get a lot of programmers who can improve your software for free.

Really, bitcoin (and altcoins) wouldn't have been where they are now if everything would have been closed source.

Yes, I'd love to see the source code for the firmware released to open source.  Clearly the delay in sorting out the issues with the miners could be much quicker if we had a community of developers who could help out instead of the single developer at LightingASIC.  A great example of this is how cgminer has been modified and improved...there's cgminer for various OSes, a scrypt-only version, optimizations for various GPUs/pools, and even new algorithms...none of this would have happened if the community relied only on a single developer and closed-source code.
