Linaro Android lead proposes new build naming scheme

For a while we knew that our currently used scheme for naming our android builds didn’t do a good job at conveying what was in there. Finally, Zach proposed a new naming scheme on the linaro android mailing list. I like the way it ensures that people understand the main ingredients of how our builds are cooked at a quick glance, but I only see this as a first step!

First step only, because the name can only give information about the main/biggest components integrated and obviously cannot give a complete list all components changed and used to cook our builds. This means: even after this, we have to continue our effort to improve the documentation shipped side-by-side with our build and release artifacts.

If you have feedback on top of what was discussed in that thread, talk to pfefferz on irc.freenode.net or reply here or to the mailing list post:
