Motorola Developer Resources will have Downloads, Links and rich set of tools from Nov 1 in place of current Motodev portal

Earlier today, Motorola announced that it would be discontinuing the Motodev portal and all related social media sites, effective November 1st. Quoting Motorola’s official statement from the Motodev site –

On November 1, the MOTODEV portal, tech library, support forums and social media sites will transition and we’ll begin redirecting users to a new Developer Resources page on Motorola.com for downloads and links to the rich set of tools, support forums and technical documentation now available in the broader Android community such as: Google Android Developers and Stack Overflow.

The MOTODEV Android Portal was originally launched back in 2009, to provide developers with the technical support and resources required, to create quality apps for Motorola devices. With Google having acquired Motorola earlier this year, the move to consolidate android development resources makes sense from the big picture perspective for both companies.
