Hi, The Android team weekly report for 2011-03-17 is now available and can be found at:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/Status/2011-03-17 The report is also reproduced in full below. Regards, Jamie. -- Linaro Release Manager | Platform Project Manager -- * Period: (20110310-20110316) * PM: JamieBennett <jamie.benn...@linaro.org> * Past reports : https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/Status == Key Points for wider discussion == * Are there Android related requirements from the Landing and Working Group teams for next cycle? == Team Highlights == * Noritsuna demonstrated a linaro-android powered robot. A video of it in action can be see at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EgfAk5RBVo * More details on the robot can be found at: http://www.siprop.org/ja/2.0/index.php?product/AutoChasingTurtle * Most of the Android related Blueprints were triaged and split up where necessary. A full list can be found at: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-android * Some benchmarking of Linaro GCC 4.5 with Android has been done with positive results. The full results can be found at: https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/Toolchain * The Linaro Evaluation Build of Android now fully supports the Beagle XM platform. More work is being done for the ST-E U8500 and TI Panda boards. * Work on the toolchain build system based on Googles own continues. Bug:731477 was fixed and code pushed upstream at https://review.source.android.com//#change,21761 * The consolidation of common code is being reviewed. Jeremy Chang sent several patches to the linaro-dev list which are now being merged. == Upcoming Deliverables == * None. == Risks / Issues == * '''HIGH IMPACT''': The recent earthquake and Tsunami in Japan has meant that work has stalled for some of the engineers. All are reported to be OK but KJ-nabe & An were worst affected as their company premises were badly hit. They may not be back for a couple of months (1 week). * '''HIGH IMPACT''': Currently the Linaro Android efforts are based on 2.6.37 but with Linaro moving to 2.6.38 and the upstream Android 2.6.38 kernel being available some rebasing efforts will be needed. John Stultz, Patrik Ryd and others need to discuss how this can be done in the smoothest way (4 weeks). Some amount of effort will be needed but that effort is unclear at this point. Will lower level after initial investigations if necessary. Investigations have started. * '''MEDIUM IMPACT''': Contribution agreements with Google for AOSP development still waiting to be approved for Alexander Sack and Patrik Ryd (2 weeks). * '''MEDIUM IMPACT''': Patrik’s Panda board is lost in the postal system atm. Sent by Mounir from IBM, Patrik is chasing tracking numbers (2 weeks). == Miscellaneous == * Wiki pages of note this week: * https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/Toolchain * http://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/UpstreamNDK * https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/UpstreamToolchain _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
