1 Change log for Android SDK Tools.
5 - Build performance improvements:
6 * resource compilation and packaging now properly use dependency to only

9 speed up this phase significantly for large projects with libraries.
10 * PNG files that are optimized during resource packaging are now cached
11 and only re-optimized if they changed instead of doing at every build.
12 - New library project mechanism:
17 Revision 12: (07/2011):
