This is specifically for freezy, the maintainer of the Android Remote: Are you still working / planning to work on the Android remote?
Otherwise, it would be nice to foresee a transition to someone wanting / having the time to do at least maintenance...
For the time being, there is work being done on different forks without centralization, which is a pity...

Although I can't actually speak for freezy I've recently done some concept mockups for a new version of the remote that he seemed interested in and once he gets the current one working with Frodo he was going you have a look into it. But of course that's no promises, but if he doesn't feel like it I was thinking of going too xda and seeing who I can get interested

What worries me a bit is that there doesn't seem to be any actual activity in the Remote,'s GIT, while others (Tom) have actually done the work already.
Note that I have no specific love for this remote, it's just that it's the only floss one, AFAIK.
It'd definitely need some ui rework...

Nice to hear although what already exists works pretty well and it's a bit strange his work is not public and he's not responding in person...

What has been said. Sorry I've neglected this forum but I was really busy with other stuff in real life. Picking up again, codegen is first, then lib integration with JSON-RPC, then a rewrite heavily based on Jezz's mockups.

I don't really understand how git's work and stuff, but my remote has stopped working since i upped to frodo alpha 7. Is there anything I can do with the files in the repo to get it working again?
