Android and Linux Foundation to Reunite?

,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux Kernel Archive hasnât been too 
| pleased with the direction Android has taken. 
| Claiming Androidâs developers offer little 
| cooperation and are slow to patch and update 
| their code, they parted ways last year.
| 
| But all of that may change soon, as Google has 
| extended the old proverbial olive branch at 
| the Linux Collaboration Summit taking place 
| today and tomorrow in San Francisco. Executive 
| Director of the Linux Foundation Jim Zemlin 
| and open source and public engineering manager 
| for Google Chris DiBona both see hope for 
| Android to rejoin the good graces of Linux.

Android and Linux Discuss Code Reunion

,----[ Quote ]
| The guardians of the Linux Kernel Archive, 
| repository for the source code for the Linux 
| open source operating system, turned the code 
| for Google's Android phone out the door last 
| year. The guardians felt they were getting too 
| little cooperation from Google and too few 
| patches from its engineers.
