At least I can follow the Linux development and I can provide input and
send patches with a chance of them going in.

I can't see anything of Android until the entire code dump happens.
I can't see any discussions about the development, nor have any input.

Sure you can fork what google has already released and go somewhere else,
but forking isn't great if it can be avoided.  And google isn't likely
to let you run their applications on your fork, nor to let you use their
app store with your fork.
