No, not at all. I've read the articles you pointed out.

The pity is that at the present stage I know little about internals of
graphics. That's why I absorbed the information and have no reaction.

I agree with the points of the article, but am lost about your point
here. Sorry if I misinterpreted your messages.

What's the bottom line? Are you suggesting making the development more
open? I'd say it's already so.

To the whole paragraph, the answer is there is no special place for this
project except the wiki
(http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Android). The discussion goes to
mailinglist and IRC, the code get held in gentoo official cvs tree.

An announcement will be made after the uid/gid mapping bugs in Android
being resolved.

Ok.
