So a) chill and wait and see or b) pass and look else where if you must have an answer today.
Completely agree on the chill, wait and see. As much as I appreciate the work in releasing the APK to the public I wish they hadn't; there's too much speculation and misinformation as a result.
I completely disagree, I think that by releasing the apk (or rather allowing others to build the code) the XBMC team has lit a fire underneath the various hardware OEMs that showed them how important making XBMC just work is. Now that they see themselves being left behind, suddenly they're wanting to talk about licensing and driver support, where before they had a policy of ignoring us and hoping we'd go away.
This could be the best thing that ever happened to us when it comes to those licensing issues.
