About

Replicant is a fully free Android distribution running on several devices. It is a free software project.

Most of Android is licensed freely under the Apache License 2.0. The Linux core is mostly Free Software under the GPLv2. However, there are numerous components of the default software stack on the devices that are proprietary software. Most notably, nearly any component that touches the hardware directly is proprietary software.

We are not experts in embedded devices; we are just enthusiastic hackers that are giving a try.

Our blog/website, wiki and tracker are graciously hosted by OSU-OSL.
Our code hosting is graciously provided by Gitorious.

Replicant was founded by four people: Bradley M. Kuhn, Aaron Williamson, Graziano Sorbaioli, Denis ‘GNUtoo’ Carikli.
