Nice work! This looks quite useful. I'm definitely going to check it out. Big plus for having it on maven central.
I have a more general question -- where do I go to find more stuff like this? Do you also announce new versions somewhere with more of a focus on Android development?
I started doing more serious Android work about two months ago, and finding libraries has been more challenging than I expected. Through Stack Overflow comments, random conversations, and stumbling through things like Square's Github page I've managed to locate a handful of libraries that make development much better. It'd be great to know where this information lives, though.
You may also find this interesting. On May 6th we hit 50,000 demos (we are at over 70k now) so to celebrate I created a site that lists libraries in order of their popularity in DevAppsDirect: http://www.inappsquared.com/devappsdirect_library_ranking.ph...
I also booked marked DroidParts. I will see if I can get it added soon
Google+ has a vibrant Android developer community where a lot of folks post this stuff. Square has an entire community there devoted to their open source offerings.

Looks good! I've had DroidParts on my Stack O' Potential Coolness (TM) for a while, and it keeps sliding down - I think I'll bump it back to the top of the stack.
Even on the first intro page, I saw a bunch of crud I've written a dozen times code simplified.
