Hello list,

We would like to collaborate with the existing open source projects in
0xlab's Android distribution, 0xdroid. I personally
think GNU LGPL is safe to use especially for the environments
consisting of dynamically-linked libraries like Android.
We would like to introduce several upstream free software enhancements
into 0xdroid, such as tls /NPTL from GNU
glibc/eglibc, ARM NEON optimizations against Cairo, etc.

To enable the components and implementations licensed under GNU LGPL, define
ALLOW_LGPL := true
in file buildspec.mk. It is enabled by default. You are certainly
able to disable them by setting the variable during
build time.
