@commonsguy Thanks, are you involved in it at all?
@eighthave Other than being aware of it and having attended a couple of the Meetups, no.
@commonsguy do you think it has a chance of gaining traction? It would be amazing to have a real community around AOSP. Google has set things up almost as if they wanted to prevent that from happening, so its not easy.
@eighthave Off the cuff, I think that the community needs to have more and clearer benefits to participation, beyond a limited-use DIscord instance and the Meetup (that already existed).
To quote Gertrude Stein, "there's no 'there' there".
@eighthave Yes, it was formed by Chris Simmonds and others following a talk last year at LPC. We wrote about the talk here: https://lwn.net/Articles/992992/
@jzb ah yes, I see it now https://yewtu.be/watch?v=fMuva71ryeg
@eighthave It stemmed from the AOSP/AAOS Meetup and some discussions at conferences (see the Meetings section of that page).
