no master is currently for sure not targeted to users wich do not compile
it theirself,..

i am not 100% sure if people which do not know how to build olsrd, should
really use it,..

as often they also do not know how to configure networks basics, or
wireless interfaces,..

(but yes, i am aware that it would help many people to have
binaries/packages,
just afraid of even more 'stupid' support questions, on olsrd mailinglists,
i would have to start to simply ignore)

its not not really "much" work,..

(and infact it does not need to be a full openwrt-toolchain
(which is always updated for each openwrt version, or that needs to exist
for every openwrt target /plattform)
just matching cpu-architecture and uclibc is enough

(same applies e.g. to ubuntu and debian, one .deb for all i386 or amd64
should be enough)

btw i have/had lazy actualised (while its infact fully automised, so i just
need to do a cronjob to offer nightlies) openwrt buildsystems (indluding
openwrt compatible repositories)
for some openwrt (and other) targests (its missing newer openwrt/uclibc
versions, as afair old ones do still work and i got lazy,..)

e.g. http://193.238.157.78/~markus/olsrd/cross/

or
http://193.238.157.78/~markus/olsrd/cross/arch_ar71xx/uclibc_0.9.30/packages/Packages.gz
