Whiteboard
1) Brief UCM background - bring application configuration of audio h/w to Android, ASoC driven simplification, settled on Tinyasla instead of alsa-lib, config file support for ARM (Panda, i.MX53 - need Origen, Snowball)
2) Enumerate dev boards and priority - Panda (TI), Origen (Samsung), i.MX53 (Freescale), Snowball (ST-E) - needs ALSA. BeagleXM, Others ?, Currently only Nexus S.
3) Need for common configuration files, or can they be close? OK to just tolerate differences?
4) libaudio support for existing hardware via AudioHardware and Policy, Tinyalsa/
5) Prioritizing steps to deployment - port, Android environment, development board support, Ubuntu dev - pulseaudio/
