Android: the first week

Wow, what a week! The response from the community on Monday's Android SDK release has been overwhelming. Our forums have been flooded and we're glad to be helping people dig in writing new applications.

A handful of quick notes for this Friday evening:

1. We've released a quick point-revision of the SDK to fix some high-priority issues. You can now download M3-RC22a and read the release notes. Don't forget to get Eclipse to update the ADT plugin.



2. A couple of good articles on the web for your reading pleasure:
   
   
   
   • A developer's perspective on Google's Android SDK
   
   
   • Why Google chose the Apache Software License [sic] over GPLv2 for Android
   
   
   • Google Calling: Inside Android, the gPhone SDK
   
   
   
   



3. Finally, we've split our forums into topic areas to make them a bit easier to manage. Be sure to check out the details and join the discussion.

Have a great weekend, and happy Android coding.
