Hi Carla,
Although Android would have had to pass the conformity tests, the agreement I've seen doesn't really restrict the addition of Java libraries. The relevant term is "(iii) do not add any additional packages, classes, or interfaces to the java.* or javax.* packages or their subpackages;". As far as I can tell, the addition of classes in a separate name space would be fine. Indeed, the requirement I cited seems to be an implicit permission to have libraries that are in any name space other than java.* and javax.* .
