This could be a good thing or a horrible thing. I am not sure yet. On one hand it means they have better quality control on other hand too much control means potentially worse direction for Android and the US gov forcing them to leave backdoors. Time to make a new mobile OS. Maybe something based on some version of BSD.
I really hope this isn't a dark path for Free Software...
It seems that its recent moves (upstreaming most code to Linux using "Generic Kernel Image", moving modules to its "Mainline architecture", adding Linux VM) is mainly an escape for Google to continue to get much control of Android (using AOSP) once they we'll need to sell Android. Rushing the development will allow to make as much public code as possible before using it to finally compete with Android. And if it allows us to get better overall Android experience (I've gave up on stock Android experience many years ago but some ROMs are great), it's a win-win.
