Package: androidsdk-ddms
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

i've been alerted to the following in the android sdk terms and conditions:

  3.4 You agree that you will not take any actions that may cause or
  result in the fragmentation of Android, including but not limited to
  distributing, participating in the creation of, or promoting in any
  way a software development kit derived from the SDK.

this is, in my mind, in clear violation of the debian charter and,
if correct, means that the entire android sdk should be pulled,
or at least moved to non-free.

thoughts?
