This is an old news. Does anyone know the latest situation ?

Last time I checked they were planning in getting in back to the main line. Don't know if that has happened yet
When I browse the linux kernel source at[url] http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.34/[/url], I type "android" in the search field. There are some search results related to the string 'android'.
Can I conclude, up to now, android is still part of the linux kernel? Maybe only kernel moderators can answer my question . . .
if you grep the contents of the kernel for "@google.com" you will see their contributions, the majority of them so far are ARM drivers which apply to mobile electronics and I assume the android devices.
If you want the command I use to parse out specific files that have had contributions from specific domains then I will share it in here.
No. Thanks. I just want to know if google wants to follow the linux community or establish her standard by using andriod,
Rubberman, hopefully if we both go again next year we can meet up for some discussions.
But I think Google 's incentive to merge depends upon Meego 's development.
If Meego can pose a threat to Android, Google should not have sent just 2 programmers.

The language is traditional Chinese, but the Desktop UI is Gnome, not QT. This is queer. . .
As per your note about the UI, the core is all based on GTK, but the app development will be on QT.
Not true:

Downfall? On an rpm based system? If the apps store is not good... well, community to the rescue! I've seen it happen on the Maemo platform

Yea that doesn't sound like a great plan of action if you want to make your OS widely available.
I hope so. Did we maybe meet this year? Lots of great conversations and head-banging! :-)

I don't think we met, I spent most of my time with the nokia/meego developers, MasonM (the linux.com ultimate guru) and hanging out in front with the smokers. I definitely did not socialize as much as I should have, and I also learn that next time I go I should bring business cards.
