Hi. Thanks. Glad to see you contributing again.

Does F-Droid now support AGP 9 (ref)? Believe their build servers are one reason we're stuck with AGP 8.x, or may be we can split the build steps to use AGP 8 or 9 depending on the variant?

Thanks
I believe the AGP issue has been resolved for some time already.
