Hi!  Thanks for your feedback.

android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.getAttachedDbs() returns


ArrayList instead of List

We'll get this fixed.


android.os.AsyncTask onCancelled() uses the UK spelling of the word
where everywhere else in the API, the US spelling variations are
used.  It's not just Canceled vs. Cancelled, but *ize vs. *ise.

Yeah we noticed this in the API review.  Unfortunately this *is* consistent
with the other APIs on AsyncTask (and probably not coincidentally, the
standard Java APIs like Future that AsyncTask is implemented on top of). :/

We decided it was better to keep the AsyncTask APIs self-consistent, rather
than inconsistently consistent with other Android APIs. :}

I guess I should have said we are keeping it consistently inconsistent,
rather than making it inconsistently consistent. :)
