I'm an engineer. I deal with technical matters, and I talk about the
present. I don't take care of non-technical aspects, and I don't talk
about the future. And I'm trying my best to not be silent.

Can we now please get back on the topic at hand, i.e. the components
of the SDK whose source code was released? There are better locations
to have broad discussions that are off-topic here, e.g. the
android-platform group.

Thanks,
JBQ
