[citation][nom]lukeiamyourfather[/nom]I get that, but I don't see why this is a big deal. Android isn't the only project out there to do that. Many open source hardware drivers developed by the hardware manufacturers are the same way. True that some open source projects allow access to the trunk at all times but that doesn't make a project that restricts access to the trunk "the same as iOS" or not open source.[/citation]
The big deal is the misuse of the name "open source" but as Hewitt said, is more open than other mobile OSs out there,... but is not what open source really is.....
Anyhow it might be just a technicality, but for people that are developing on this code, it would mean a lot if they have the latest build. A bug that they might be working on might have already been fixed.... etc...
Oh yeha... and please stop with the "childish" negative post rating.... we are not in kindergarten....
