Subject: Eclair is now in AOSP
I've just created an eclair branch in AOSP, which contains the code
that many people have been waiting for.

What's in that branch? It's basically a snapshot of part of Google's
internal eclair tree, a little bit more recent than the build that was
used in Droid. It's not the exact source for Droid and is not ready to
ship on a consumer device.

Caveats:
-There's no change history. Google is planning to eventually make the
change history available, but at the moment the history contains some
things that can't be open-sourced, and making a snapshot was the
fastest way to deal with those.

-It's a partial tree. We'll be open-sourcing more of eclair over time,
but we figured it would make more sense to open-source part of it now
instead of waiting until everything was in place.

-It doesn't build for ADP1 or ION/ADP2. We're working with the various
companies involved to try to resolve this issue, but we preferred to
open-source the code in its current state instead of waiting for a
solution on the hardware side.

-It's not currently merged in the master tree. I'm working on it, but
I wanted to get something out before the week-end. Please be patient.
I'll try to complete it as quickly as I can.

-It doesn't currently contain the AOSP-specific files (build
configurations, etc...). They'll come back.

-Calendar is broken. I have a fix that I will release along with the
master tree.
