The GPL? Virtually all of the software is under GPLv2, barring a few non-critical bits.
Well yes, when you hype it up, throw money at it, and convince people that you are the open mobile OS (but only for mobile handset vendors and carriers) then you'll get attention.
Repeating a point made in ignorance doesn't make it true.
I am concerned with the movement of open source mobile OSes, and Android is completely detached from everything that exists already. On top of that, it's held almost entirely by Google who have show no hesitation to close the source when they saw it fit.
But hey, rant with more bad information more.
