Hello,

for those wanting to base their ports on AOSP instead of CyanogenMod there
are now work in progress branches based on the android tags 4.2.2_r1
(builds fine) 4.3.1_r1 (builds apart from hybris) and 4.4_r1 (porting work
in progress)

The branch manifests include the ubuntu specific projects such as hybris,
platform-api and external/gpg so that only vendor blobs need adding before
starting a build.

Here's how to check out the 4.2.2 based branch

$mkdir phablet-4.2.2 && cd $_

$repo init -u git://phablet.ubuntu.com/aosp/platform/manifest.git -b
phablet-4.2.2_r1
(here you can optionally pass --reference /path/to/aosp/mirror)
$repo sync -j 4

This is in an entirely separate AOSP based source tree, unlike the
phablet-4.2.2_r1 branch that is piggybacked on the CyanogenMod based
repository. Following AOSP assures we can always branch off the latest
released version without waiting for CyanogenMod being available for that
version first.
