If you and Bahadir are interested in cooperating and helping merge work from the Google Android branch into upstream to reduce future porting effort and improve core functionality, I'm +1 on some priority reshuffling to take it on (though Michael's the boss).
On "android into upstream", this seems like a good point to mention the QEMU Google Summer of Code project which Patrick Jackson is doing (with me as mentor), which is basically trying to take the virtual devices and platform from the Android emulator and upstream them: http://gsoc11-qemu-android.blogspot.com/
I believe David has also made progress in the "upstream into android" direction but I'll let him talk about that if he wants to :-)
Hopefully both efforts will result in the two source trees moving closer together and being easier to keep in sync in future.
