Nokia's buying of AL probably means that they won't have to license the brand to Foxconn in order to make hardware. (The N1 is a pretty good tablet though.) Also worth noting is that AL ows a pretty big pool of patents, so I'

Any plans on supporting Windows? That will definitely increase the adoption of Bazel.
