    Developer Title?

    I have noticed some people have an Android developer title. I am a Gentoo developer. Would it be possible to get a Gentoo developer title?

    Hello

    Hello everyone. I am a Gentoo developer. I would like to patch Android's build system so that people can compile firmware on Gentoo Linux. The first firmware that I want to build on Gentoo is firmware for my LG Optimus V.
