If there's accusation of misconduct, there's a bug in the system so you isolate it and investigate it from the outside.

There's no investigation happening here, just two happy parties trying to create great products that can both be successful and be even happier. Lawyers can stay out of this happiness, inventing and injecting "conflicts" that never existed in the first place.

Why should the investigation be from the outside?

[coldtea]

Yep.

And in any case who (and by whom) is going to be assigned from outside to investigate any misconduct in this Google-other Android vendors case? Any misconduct of prioritizing their phones other third party hw in Android wouldn't be a crime, just a bad deal for the third party vendors.

You haven't answered my question.

Maybe confused? I'm not the person you quoted and replied to (that was dheera).

I'm the person disagreeing with dheera in this thread, and I expanded upon what you asked, adding (to further refute dheera) that there wouldn't be any investigation from the outside.
