Protobuf: Recommended strategy for android?

[pcj]

Examples and searching suggest one should use the protoc-gen-javalite, but it seems that plugin binary only exists on the javalite branch, which has not been updated in over a year.

Is there up-to-date documentation of which protobuf flavor should be used in an android setting (and which corresponding plugin to use with gRPC).

Thanks!

The new version of java lite has some incompatible changes with the previous version. We are considering how to roll it out.

Any update on this?
