      1 There are two distributions of Proguard in the tree:
      2 
      3 * external/proguard, which is used by the platform
      4 
      5 * prebuilts/tools/common/proguard, which is used by the tools (and
      6   distributed to users in the tools/ folder)
      7 
      8 These are updated independently since one evolves with the platform,
      9 and the other with the tools.
     10 
     11 Even though there is a MODULE_LICENSE_GPL license marker in this
     12 directory, note that the Android SDK has an explicit exemption as
     13 described in the license.html file.
     14 
     15 The proguard4.7 directory contains the unzipped contents of the
     16 official Proguard 4.7 zip file, available from
     17     http://proguard.sourceforge.net/index.html
     18 
     19 The .zip file is also included here such that the source code can
     20 easily be used (when debugging) or the distribution rebuilt from
     21 source (if for some reason the above repository should be
     22 unavailable).
     23 
     24 The sdk/build/tools.atree script will copy part of the proguard4.7
     25 tree into the tools/ directory. It skips the src/ directory (except
     26 for task.properties) and build/. Therefore, we removed the following
     27 two lines from the README file:
     28    - src      : the source code
     29    - build    : various alternative build scripts
     30 such that the copied README reflects the actual contents of the
     31 distributed tree.
     32 
     33 In addition, we added a paragraph to state that the distribution was
     34 slightly modified.
     35 
     36 In addition, the sdk/build/tools.atree will copy in the license.html
     37 file, which was obtained via
     38        wget http://proguard.sourceforge.net/license.html
     39   (and the JavaScript redirect element in the <head> was removed)
