Google Shifts Native Development Kit Policy on Public Contributions
|
Google is opening up Android development even more with a new policy for the Native Development Kit (NDK) seeing contributed code added directly to the public source tree rather then the private tree it was once relegated to. The hope is that a more transparent contribution process will prevent OEMs from releasing devices with unfinished or broken versions of Android, such as when an unnamed manufacturer almost shipped phones with a pre-release build of Android 1.5. The presence of such unpolished versions making it to market would mean a poor user experience and incompatibility with applications and software.
To answer your question, NO. Stop trying to add drama, to a good thing.
