Nothing that I'm aware of. I was speaking of "distros" and I would not
classify Android a "distro". Though I guess, since Linux is "just a
kernel", anything that uses it and packages other stuff around it is a
"distro".

As I said, it would begin to eat into SQLite's lead, but probably not
enough to win. We can substitute the stronger "definitely" for "probably"
but I like hedging my bets. :)
