Procedure for licensing Android market

Question

On the Android Compatibility page it is stated that:

Once you've built a compatible device, you may wish to include Android Market to provide your users access to the third-party app ecosystem. Unfortunately, for a variety of legal and business reasons, we aren't able to automatically license Android Market to all compatible devices. To inquire about access about Android Market, you can contact us.

Does anybody know what the actual procedure is to get Android Market on you own device, assuming the CDD is followed and the CTS is passed. Specifically I would like to hear from someone who have experience on licensing the Android Market?

Also, I hear that Google has relaxed the restrictions on licensing the Android Market after version 2.3, but I cannot find any sources supporting this statement. Does anybody have additional information on this?

Thanks

Answer 1

It's very easy, on the page you linked to (http://source.android.com/compatibility/index.html), there's a Contact Us link on the left side. You will find all the contacts information at http://source.android.com/compatibility/contact-us.html

Good luck!
