Don't be too hopeful- Binder is still a big sticking point, and nothing is going to work without it. The two schools of thought on it are:<p>* It is a terrible, terrible interface that doesn't belong in the kernel<p>* Linux supports SysV IPC because other Unices do, Binder is at least as popular<p>Before you pile in and declare your reasonableness by endorsing the latter position, please understand that the former is not exactly on thin ice.
