[0]Riskable writes "Remember that $200,000 [1]Contest For a Better
Open-WRT Wireless Router GUI? Today Ubiquiti posted the [2]winning
entries to their support wiki. The grand prize was a tie between [3]PyCI
(written by yours truly) and [4]NETSHe with [5]OpenNET as the runner up.
Source code and firmware images for each entry are available for download
on their respective wiki pages. I'll be setting up a project page for
PyCI (and [6]l2sh) soon to make it a participatory open source product.
Even if you don't have a RouterStation, or don't care about OpenWRT,
there are numerous Python modules and tools inside of PyCI that could
prove useful to other open source projects (e.g. iptables.py can
read/interpret over 400 permutations of the iptables command). I'll also
be checking the comments if anyone has any questions for me about PyCI or
the contest in general. BTW: I'd like to thank all the commenters in the
original article that insinuated that the technical requirements were
impossible and/or that making a GUI to configure such complex things is a
waste of time. I read every one and I wouldn't have made it such an
obsession otherwise!"
