Hi,

I've reviewed the patches:

http://guug.org/nit/nitdroid/nitdroid_kernel.patch.bz2
http://guug.org/nit/nitdroid/nitdroid_userspace.patch.bz2

Seem OK to me, so I've approved your project.

Welcome on board and happy hacking! :)

Any chance we can have some action taken on this request? We have a bunch of people ready and waiting to use it.

Thanks!

Registration Details


  • Name: [ NITdroid ]
  • System Name:  nitdroid
  • Type: non-GNU software & documentation
  • License: GNU General Public License v2 or later





Description:

NITdroid is a kernel and userspace port from scratch of the Google Android operating system to the NITs hardware. It is a software alternative to the Maemo platform that ships with the Internet Tablets.

This project is an ongoing effort to make Android usable/useful on NIT devices (N770 and N8x0_).


Other Software Required:

Linux OMAP Kernel - GPLv2 - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap-2.6.git;a=summary

Android Userspace - Apache 2.0 and other Open Source Initiative approved licenses - License page http://source.android.com/license

Android Source Code page - http://android.git.kernel.org/


Other Comments:

This is an active development effort to port Android to the Nokia Internet Tablets. The development effort has been happening at the URL below since December 2008, but its just not reasonable to support a software development effort in a forum thread. We need a formal development environment that welcomes and supports open source software.
