I've also previously used the dd-wrt, but after I get to know better 
OpenWRT, it became my first choice. Part of flash is available as a 
regular filesystem. Is there a proper packaging system. In short, much 
more versatile than dd-wrt.

Anyway, when I last looked at the dd-wrt pages, so it seemed to me that 
the development already stagnant for some time.
