[Galaxy Note II Android Development] umetnic:
Aroma Bloatware Details

Dear Dr. Ketan,

I don't upgrade ROM on daily basis, due to lack of time and such. More on yearly basis, one could say.

So I of course forget a lot of stuff and have to relearn a lot when upgrading.

One thing that took me some time to learn was 'what all those aroma bloatware is', before I decide that I don't need it.

So I compiled (work in progress) this reference list (from different sources) for Your ROM and would like to share it with other happy users.

Maybe, not sure if possible, it could also be included in aroma itself, I believe it would also be useful for some other 'newbies'. :D

And Thank You VEEERRRYYYY Much for all Your effort! :DD
