Comment (by sisbell):

 Replying to [comment:14 sysrqb]:
 > Shane, can you expand on why this is better? https://github.com/sisbell
 /tor-android-service/issues/12

 In tor-browser-build, we will replace these jars/libs with the ones that
 are generated as part of the build. The developer who wants to use tor-
 android-service in their own project will have these libraries already
 provided in the libs folder. This keeps a consistent approach. I'm still
 exploring whether these dependent libraries should be treated as provided,
 meaning they won't be packaged in the resulting aar.

 Ideally, in the future, I'd like to get the TOPL artifacts officially
 deployed to a maven repo and pull these down as dependencies during a
 regular developer build. The tor-browser-build would pull down the
 dependencies as part of the build process as well.
