Discussion should definitely (maybe) be in the developer forum, not here. This is going to become the critical issue with Android. I bought a book of software development for Androiid, and immediately realized this issue would become unmaanageable unless Google addresses it at the O/s level. Is google capable of managing the software development and release cycle? So far it seems the answer is Not Very Well..
