This list isn't for the Android source, it's just for building apps
with the Android SDK.

If you don't know even know how the source is built, how can you
substantiate this conclusion?  You can change the apps, but you have
to release them on custom firmware: you can't take a firmware
distributed app and distribute it to users via the android market, for
example.

So basically: this question isn't for this list, you can to go
http://source.android.com to find a more appropriate list.
