Mark Wielaard: New GPG key.
Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

Android Support in Mobility Platform
As Ryan described in his recent blog, we now have support for Java SE clients in the Mobility Platform. Mahesh Sharma, a student and Sun ambassador in India, has been working on a port of this library to the Android platform. As part of his work, Mahesh also re-wrote the UI of our MusicDb demo and proved that Android is a great plaform to run SGMP applications.
With Mahesh's work we now have full support for MCBO clients on Android. Just like in Java SE, the MCBO API remains unchanged, so any Java ME application that uses our sync library can be ported to Android by simply re-writing its UI. Here are a couple of screenshots from Mahesh's MusicDb application on the Android emulator:
We have also tried this application on an actual Android device and the application's usability and performance did not disappoint. If you are interested in trying out these new features and providing feedback, please contact us at mep-feedback@sun.com and we can provide an early access release of the Mobility Platform for a limited evaluation period.
