[CsMain] Setting up an Android development team for CS

Hi all,

I just acquired an ASUS Transformer Tablet with Tegra 3 processor. I've
seen a few 3D games
on it (demos and free games) and performance is unbelievable. I'm currently
busy experimenting
with the development options for this platform and it seems very good
indeed. The normal development
language for Android is Java but it is also possible to make native apps in
C++ using the NDK.
Specifically for the Tegra processor you can get a customized version of
the NDK and SDK from nvidia
directly which is easier to set up. It works on windows and linux.

Using these tools it should be possible to make a working port of Crystal
Space on Android. Especially
Android devices with Tegra type processors or higher should be able to run
pretty powerful Crystal
Space games but I'm hoping that older processors can also use it a bit.

So what is my current dream? You all know that I'm working on AresEd. I
would *love* to be able to
develop Android 3D games using AresEd. The idea would be that users can
install Ares as an application
launcher for Ares specific games. AresEd itself would probably not run on
the Android but at least
the Ares game player should.

So I'm trying to find people to help me with this. I will certainly work on
this but I can't do this alone
as this needs testing on various devices and there are also areas in CS
that I'm not that comfortable
with (like shaders and stuff like that).

Let me know if you're interested.

Greetings,
