No it's not a typo: Android's internal logging framework prefixes log tags with
the string defined in LOG_NAMESPACE (see previous comment), and the 32
characters limit refers to the prefixed string. So, being this namespace 8
chars long, the tag limit becomes 24 characters. I guess one more character
goes as the C string terminator, so in the end we have 23 characters left in
Java.
