      6 includes feature overviews of the various Android platform versions.
      7 The links below will take you to developer.android.com where you can view this
      8 information.</p>
      9 <p>The links below will navigate you away from this site.</p>
     10 <h3><a href="http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3-highlights.html">Android 2.3</a></h3>
     11 <p>Android 2.3 corresponded to the "Gingerbread" milestone branch, and has an API level of 9.</p>
     12 <h3><a href="http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.2-highlights.html">Android 2.2</a></h3>
     13 <p>Android 2.2 corresponded to the "FroYo" milestone branch, and has an API level of 8.</p>
     14 <h3><a href="http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.0-highlights.html">Android 2.1</a></h3>
     15 <p>Android 2.1 corresponded to the "Eclair" milestone branch, and has an API level of
     16 7.</p>
     17 <p>The Eclair branch was also used for 2.0 and 2.0.1; however, both of those
     18 releases were quickly obsoleted by the version 2.1 Eclair release. As Android
     19 2.1 includes key bug fixes and improvements not present in 2.0/2.0.1, only
     20 Android 2.1 should be used for new devices. As there is no compatibility
     21 program for 2.0 or 2.0.1, the officially compatible Eclair-based release is Android
     22 2.1. (The linked document refers to Android 2.0, because there were
     23 no new platform features added in 2.1.)</p>
     24 <h3><a href="http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-1.6-highlights.html">Android 1.6</a></h3>
     25 <p>Android 1.6 corresponded to the "Donut" milestone branch, and has an API level of
     26 4.</p>
     27 <h3><a href="http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-1.5-highlights.html">Android 1.5</a></h3>
     28 <p>Android 1.5 corresponded to the "Cupcake" milestone branch, and has an API
     29 level of 3.</p>
     30 <h3><a href="http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-1.1.html">Android 1.1</a></h3>
     31 <p>Android 1.1 has an API level of 2. Android 1.1 was known as
     32 "Petit Four" internally, though this name was not used officially.</p>
     33 <h3>Android 1.0</h3>
     34 <p>was the first release of Android, and has an API
     35 level of 1. Since it was the first released version of Android, no platform
     36 highlights were prepared for this release.</p>
