[android-developers] Re: custom attributes in library projects

In my tests with the latest tools, the custom attribute's namespace
declaration in the library project needs to match the package
declaration of the including project. Correct?

As far as I can tell, this is a known limitation and the suggested
workaround is to copy the affected resources (e.g., main.xml in the
example above) into each of the including projects.
