Hi,

This is great news, thank you all (JBQ and the countless other
developers) for your hard work.

We discussed about branches a few weeks back on the list.

I would like to make a proposal regarding the merging to master. I
think it would make sense to hold off the merge to master until the
necessary closed source binaries for ADP1 and/or ADP2 are available.
This way the master branch would always be usable to build software
for the "official" Android platform development devices.

If you think that it is more important to get the new code into master
even at the cost of breaking the device builds, then I would like to
propose to create an "oldmaster" branch, or at least a frozen repo
manifest which can be used to build for devices, while the vendors are
releasing the necessary closed-source binaries for the new version.

What do you think?

Could you give us a bit more details what is missing?

Best Regards,
