   The pull request is #874
   at [1]https://github.com/libusb/libusb/pull/874 .  I wrote a basic
   android backend for libusb in like a forced clarity burst for another
   project.
   libusb is starved for maintainers, and by the time anybody got to it I
   was in a different state of mind.  long story short, it is now _very_
   hard for me to engage, has missing functionality and disorganization
   but is still a huge improvement on the in-tree android situation, and
   works just barely well enough for a lot of people to use.
   a few months back, while my pr was still in review, a developer
   committed some changes to the main tree that broke all nonrooted
   android functionality, even the old stuff still in the main tree.  the
   changes engaged the same option handling code I extended to add android
   java interaction.

   second long story short, a new maintainer from debian finally merged in
   an adhoc fix for the breaking changes.  my pr was on pause, because I
   didn't know what the final fix would end up looking like.  it ended up
   looking like whatever the last proposal happened to be, because nobody
   was around to comment on design choices, which is an interesting thing
   to add to one's experiences.
