Maybe I just read too much xda forums, but I never saw anything close to the professionalism and skill necessarily to tackle a hard problem like telephony. A lot of OSS is the best of breed, but the structure of mobile OS development never seemed to attract that. LKML vs xda maybe? The feeling that xda trended very young, the total absence of build systems for most projects... PMOS is definitely the highlight, and I remember old cyanogen on my nexus one having nightlies, but they were the exception, and I've lost track of how many such projects have imploded. Others just attach zips to xda posts. I think it's an ecosystem problem, not a hardware one. There probably needs more corporate buy-in, RHEL/Suse style.
