The android platform is a set of free software for android development. With the Debian platform and its derivatives ( like Ubuntu ) being the choice platforms for android developers, it makes most sense to have the entire android toolchain and sdk in Debian. The Debian Android Tools Team in synergy with the Debian Java Team seeks to make this happen, and have the entire android toolkit shipped in the most popular Linux distributions.
This project is designed to achieve this goal. Debian already ships the core android sdk tools, enough to build some apps. I will be working closely with mentors from Debian Android Tools Team and Debian Java Team to update existing packages and create all new android tools packages from Google source necessary to have the entire android toolkit in Debian.
