Topics for This Week

Tips, Tricks and Best Practices
We had several posts to the mailing list last week covering some good information about Android, Java and code maintenance. Sriram has a post on setImageBitmap(null) being evil. Richard walks through his investigation of a memory issue he fixed. He also started a discussion about some best practices.
