Hi Geert!

First of all, there's a typo in the last line of debian/changelog, 
s/capebele/capable

Now, some questions.

- The idea of wrtng is to run once you have built OpenWRT?
- What are the differences between wrtng and debwrt? (apart from using 
multistrap)
- Is there some doc on how to use this tool?

Kinds regards, Lisandro.
