The build system is really the Android build system with only a couple of changes bolted on: building gecko and gaia. In both cases we have Android.mk makefiles that will invoke the gecko and gaia build systems and put the output files where the Android build system expects them to be to assemble the images. At the top level we've got additional build targets for utility functions (e.g. building updates, blob-free images, etc...). Gabriele
