List of open source projects that help develop Android applications

Question

Many open source libraries that help develop Android applications have emerged over time. IMO, looking at the source code of good projects, helps to study the system better, faster and not to mention the reduction of development time. Is there a recommended list of such projects, and if not, can we create such a list? I think it will really be useful for other developers.

Thank.

• http://code.google.com/p/apps-for-android/

I would also recommend looking for public repositories like code.google.com, github, bitbucket for the android keyword.
