I guess an interesting question (from someone who doesn't know meson
yet) would be whether meson could slurp in the Makefile.sources type
stuff that we have, which are shared so far between
android/scons/autotools (and for the most part, kept developers from
having to care *too* much about the different build systems)

Jason and I have talked about that too. I'd suggested that we could write a
module for meson to read makefile.sources (since we're surely not the only
project that would benefit from such a module), except that android is moving to
blueprint[1] instead of android.mk files. As far as I can tell blueprint doesn't
support using makefile.sources, so it seems somewhat moot in a world of
blueprint for android, meson for *.

I guess even if it is only a temporary thing, something that could
slurp in Makefile.sources seems like it would be useful for a
transition period.

I'm not totally up to speed on android/blueprint stuff.. but even some
simplified or different "here-are-my-sources" type file that could be
shared across build systems would be useful.  Meson sounds a bit more
extensible so maybe there is some potential to adapt to whatever
android forces on us ;-)

+ccross from the Android build team can hopefully provide some input here.
