Android development doesn't happen in a vacuum. If someone has a compelling business case to support a new architecture, then it will very likely end up getting developed, one way or another. However, that development might end up being done by folks other than the ones who did the existing work. For example, you yourself could sponsor the ports to MIPS and PowerPC, by hiring a couple folks and working with the current Android developers to get the necessary patches into a good shape for integration into the project. As David implied, though, unless these ports become essential to the project (which more-or-less leads to big companies being willing to fund their ongoing development and maintenance), they could easily bit- rot away without the continued involvement and investment of the interested parties, such as yourself. -dan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
