One issue is powering up bluetooth on Android: documentation insists that you ask the user to switch on bluetooth: one option is to add an item "Search for Bluetooth" devices on the selection screen which does this, or alternatively to just ask the user every single time the app is started. On a related note, I assume it's worth adding an "Add computer manually" item to the same screen for cases where server discovery doesn't work (e.g. if the router doesn't pass on multicast packets). If it's ok with everyone I'm going to include cleaned bluetooth headers, from android, in the source tree to avoid the need for installing a library which isn't actually linked or used. (Headers viewable <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <a href="http://gitorious.org/0xdroid/system_bluetooth/trees/59ca0be6dc8ef3f30f8f863d8fb805a55bf12fe5/bluez-clean-headers/bluetooth">http://gitorious.org/0xdroid/system_bluetooth/trees/59ca0be6dc8ef3f30f8f863d8fb805a55bf12fe5/bluez-clean-headers/bluetooth</a>). (I haven't pushed any of the code yet because it would probably break the tinderboxes due to the missing bluetooth headers.) Assuming tests on my home network go fine I should publish a first apk this coming Monday, when I'll do the last bits of transitioning to ABS. Cheers, Andrzej </body> </html>
