After Android 3.0 Honeycomb never made it to be part of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP), we didn't want to assume anything when it came to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, but it looks like everything is going to be back on track.
An Android engineer, Dan
Morrill aka morrildl, told the good folks on in the Android Building
Google Group that the source code for Ice Cream Sandwich will be put
into the AOSP repositories, but not until after it has been made
available on devices. Given that we haven't been given an exact date for
the release of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, that means we also don't have a
real window for the release of the source code.
It
seems fairly safe to assume the ICS code will be made open source next
month. So, if we're really lucky, we'll be seeing Cyangogen 9 start
hitting devices early 2012 sometime.
