    Google is becoming more and more a pain the as releasing AOSP. And they’re migrating towards more and more proprietary. I think the worry here is having the work power to keep it updated and maintained.

    I’m guessing the idea is that with this effort, it makes more sense to migrate to Linux phones instead.

      Pretty much. Google does a lot of heavy lifting, and they have a lot more pull with companies, which is why Android works now.

      It really is too bad that Google didn’t have to move Android to the Linux Foundation and make it a true community project.
