That assumes that each sdk is an independent unrelated release, which is not the case. Multiple -FINAL- sdks may in fact be more work, but multiple betas are not - the work done to release rc1 is built upon by rc2, rc3...rcN and the final release. On Tue, Oct 27, 2009 at 12:25 PM, Marco Nelissen

They did that for 1.6 (or 1.5?) - the community built SDKs from source (sans google bits) and later google released a couple of RC SDKs, I think starting 2 weeks before the final version. That implies that the framework code is open source, and not tied to exclusive contracts with verizon and
