Not sure about the improved part it certainly has changed. Check out
the Google I/O keynote video where Android is shown off. It sure looks
different from what we've got with mc5-rc15

You hit it on the head. Let's put that little open source audit of
ours to rest. When Google go out an set aside $10mio to throw at
people like us, you can rest assured they set aside an equal amount
(or more) to pay IP lawyers to vet their strategy and every step they
take along the way.
The thing is... values got under the wheels here. Not everything
that's possible is in fact desirable. "Going for it" is the mark of
EVIL doers and Google look pretty shabby right now.
