What fills you with certainty that ad revenue is clearly not a fee, while an in-app purchase is? > > Check the group charter: > > *Discuss developing Android applications using the Android framework.

Wow, you know what? You're absolutely right, and you completely ignored the point that this is not a question for a third-party legal advisor to answer, but for *Google* to answer. The question stands, if this is not the proper venue, then how exactly are developers supposed to find out whether or not specific decisions are acceptable to Google? Mark Murphy seems to think that this requires executive-level contacts. I don't think that is the case. I've interacted with representatives from other Google services that were able to clarify whether or not implementation issues violated Google's terms of service. Is this really too much to ask for Android? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
