What's his availability looking like? Will he be able to lend a hand soon?
I don't think so... sorry if you got the impression that he's some assignee
to Android team because I asked him to get a gerrit account, it really is
not the case.
I'm still, after some months now, looking for the experts in the Android
team to implement glue to get stuff working in our kernel functional on
Android.
It should be better now. With Vishal Bhoj coming online he'll be able
to focus on TI issues. I'm assuming Dave will be is PoC? Its extremely
important that TI has an Android PoC that is actively working with
Android builds and can work with Gerrit so that we can land features
quickly.
Well, I spent several man-days on these Android hacking sessions
personally - at first got the 3D driver going which was great - but
latterly didn't bear any other fruit.
IMO the issue is not a lack of POC since you have had me for a four hour
block per week for however long that's been going, but your side
actually doing the integration work. Unless something's busted on
kernel side or needs adaptation, in which case someone will help since
we also would like to twiddle Android UI menus and see WLAN coming etc,
you probably don't even need us around to do it since I already
explained the firmware, daemon and module requirements for these assets.
It's nice Bohj is looking after it now but do we actually know how to
do, eg, WLAN / BT / HDMI Audio / Onboard audio integration to Android,
between us? I haven't seen it done for any board yet and it hasn't
shown signs of advancing until now. If we are unsure how to do these
somewhat specialized actions, do we have a plan to find out how?
