Re: draft for bits.d.o: Build Android apps with Debian: apt install android-sdk



Thanks for the review! Ah, I was in the context of writing to a public
mailing list so "we" was used.

As for the content of this part of the release notes, it might be a
good idea if we also mention that the whole SDK toolset is available
on ARM and MIPS machines, which is definitely an advantage over
Google's proprietary bundle and makes our packages the only choince of
a certain portion of users.

Also, although readers can find out how to contact Android Tools Team
from the wiki page, maybe it's also slightly better to explicitly tell
readers to drop by #debian-mobile in the release notes?

Cheers,
Kai-Chung Yan

It would be good to state how to provide that feedback, too (e.g. contact the Debian Android Teams in the channels listed in https://wiki.debian.org/AndroidTools, or whatever).
