Yes, someone has even read your question in full.

I guess English isn't your first language so we should forgive the
errors that make it hard to understand what you have written. However,
effort spent writing clearly should gain you a more informative response.

Having a zero in your pseudonym doesn't make me hopeful that you will
even read all the replies conscientiously.

No - what is your "X" on your PC? Is it relevant?

This isn't a channel, this isn't IRC. But yes, there are probably
support forums for Android developers that have more Android related
traffic than the comp.lang.java.programmer newsgroup.
<http://developer.android.com/resources/community-groups.html>

On the other hand, I know a bit about Java, I own an Android phone, I
may write an Android App and I read this newsgroup. I wouldn't be
surprised to see Android related Java programming discussion here, nor
would I object.

Problems with the Eclipse IDE specifically, or with the Android plugins
for Eclipse, are probably off-topic here.

I disagree. This is a general Java programmers' forum. Eclipse may be the
most popular IDE for Java programmers. Android is one of the most significant
Java platforms. Many of us are interested in these topics even if not yet
directly involved. Seeing discussions on them can only help us, generally
speaking.

Well OK, but staring at this thread's entrails suggests to me that
discussion of those topics will not result. Let's see.

I would say that 2/3 of questions here somewhat related to a specific
IDE or app server or other tool.

If there exist a specific forum for the tool, then it may provider
better/faster answers.

But if it is Java programming, then I consider it on topic.
