I send patches on the kernel, and the android changes are few things
that I have posted. The code is android and nothing else. Porting my
changes on cupcake
just require one day, because I'm working on other stuff and not just on
android. Everyone
can fix somenhing on different part on android, I just changes few
things on it. The different
is the kernel and the ril. Koolu decides to use Sean McNeil code and I'm
very happy and I provides patches agaist that repository when I have
time and continue to change my version.
I've seen the patches being sent -- that provides what Brian or Andy
needs, but that doesn't help any of us.
If I wanted to figure out what you built in one of the images on your
web site, I would have to monitor all the lists (which I do), and
carefully pick each and every patch you send, sort out which ones have
been replaced, and apply them to my repository, one by one.
Clearly you can see that would be VERY error-prone; it would be very
unlikely that any two people doing that would actually end up with the
same set of sources that you have.
Using git (or any other SCM tool), it's really very simple to generate
the diffs from some baseline:
$ git diff > my-latest-set-of-stuff.patch
Yes I know, I start to push my changes on a git repository and I will
complete
all the things maybe tomorrow, because I'm travelling italy-spain
spain-italy and
I don't have a lot of time.
Please consider at least telling us what baseline you use for the
kernel, and for the Android sources, and providing that giant patch file
-- if you don't have the time or inclination to update a public git repo
with your changes, I expect any of us in the community can do that for you.
git web

git-clone git://feanor.sssup.it/android/<name>
But to be honest, you really sound like you are reluctant to work with
the community in providing your sources. That's a real shame, as your
work has gotten us farther along with Android than anyone else has.
Sorry, but I haven't a lot of time. I like work with the community, and
I send patches
and review where they are necessary.
Like some of the others one this list, I am reluctant to work with
binary images for which I cannot see source code (if I want to do that I
can buy a Windows Mobile cell phone). But I'm afraid I just can't
accept that I should monitor the patches flying by multiple email lists
and sort them myself in order to get that source code. :(
Ok, I understand... but push my changes on Sean RIL require time and
testing. The
big diffrence in code is in the ril, becuse the kernel is the
andy-tracking and now
with the soft-keyboard it can work without patches on it.
Please work with us.
I work with us :)
