Subject: GPL source code for Android 3.2 available in AOSP
As usual, and just like we had done before for Android 3.0 and 3.1,
the source code for the GPL and LGPL components of Android 3.2 is
available in the Android Open-Source Project, under the tag
android-3.2_r1

The process to build it is the same as what we had for 3.0 and 3.1:

# start from a master client
repo init -m 3.2-base.xml
repo sync
repo forall -c git checkout android-3.2_r1

# build with the regular process

# to come back to a plain master
repo init -m default.xml
repo sync

The caveats are unchanged since 3.1:
-the checkout command will return an error message because the tag
doesn't exist in all projects, ignore it.
-the compiled isn't any more likely to work on actual hardware as 3.1
did, since the same binary incompatibilities are still there.
