3rd parties use to present that information (e.g. the newsgroup name chosen by
gmane). It nice of you to share your personal opinions on which you prefer, but
that doesn't alter the fact that the google groups page is where you should
look for information in relation to this group.
My comment ("third party interface" is called a newsgroup) does not
question whether the Google Group is the "authoritative source". Your
term "third party interface" just struck me as a weird way to refer to a
newsgroup. And your little pissing-contest post doesn't in any way
refute my original point, which was: "There is nothing in there to
suggest that this is a developer newsgroup."
From the "authoritative source":
(http://groups.google.com/group/android-discuss)
"Android Discuss: The "water cooler" of Android discussion."
Again, nothing there to suggest that this is (primarily, let alone
exclusively) a developer newsgroup.
As much as I am not enjoying this little pissing-contest, it
unfortunately is OT to the OP.
