Silence (as now) is one extreme. Those are a couple of others. How about
something in the middle? Run AOSP as an open source project, let the closed
source trees branch off when they need to based on their secret
requirements.

And as the other poster said, even a basic moderately-ordered list of "these
are the current engineering priorities" would be a large improvement.

To be very clear, I'm not asking for a date, although it would be nice. I'm
asking for tasks. (Or maybe I am missing something - wouldn't be the first
time. Iis there a list where the various features/tasks/milestones for each
release is being discussed publically? Without that, it sure looks like the
same thing all over again.)
