The openAOS Android project (ArchDruid)

This is an open effort to bring up to date Android to gen8 (A28, A32, A43, A70, A101) and gen7 (A5IT/A48) Archos devices. We are currently basing on  Cyanogenmod.

Please use this page to document overall progress and feel free to create new pages (preferably starting with 'Android…' so like AndroidFooBar )
