I heard rumours that google was doing 2 things in particular to deal with the version fragmentation issue for developer's sake:
* Enforcing a minimum hardware level, eg opengl es2 acceleration (eg no more cheap&slow androids that do the brand no favours)
* Making it so that software updates cannot by stymied by hardware makers and carriers any more, so that as soon as google makes a new version, anyone can update to it without needing to root their device.

Are these true does anyone know?
