Project Objectives

  • Create a Fedora Based Live CD that includes the Eclipse and Android Development Kits - Andora
  • Ongoing maintenance, improvement, and promotion of the Andora Live CD for Android developers
  • Just on the side note: www.andora.com is not available. I have contacted the owner and she wants a lot of money. We are talking about $10 000 for the domain! which is unreal for us to do.
  • Is there any other suggestions for the name of the website? - Radion
