-<p>When developing an Android application that uses RenderScript, you can access its Java API in
-  one of two ways. The APIs are available in the {@link android.renderscript} package
-  on devices running Android 3.0 (API level 11) and higher. These are the original APIs for
-  RenderScript. The APIs are also available as a Support Library in the
-  {@link android.support.v8.renderscript} package, which allow you to use them on devices running
-  Android 2.2 (API level 8) and higher.</p>

 <p>We strongly recommend using the Support Library APIs for accessing RenderScript because they
