Release v9.3.0 updates the Mapbox Maps SDK for Android to use a pre-built GL Native binary rather than building from source as a submodule dependency. GL Native is changing some of its development workflows to build some Mapbox platform-specific features internally, similar to Chrome/Chromium development. Please refer to the README.md and/or DEVELOPING.md for guidance.
