Open team collaboration - [https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=im.vector.alpha view in repository]

=Description=
Riot gathers all your conversations and app integrations into one single app.

Built around group chatrooms, Riot lets you share messages, images, videos and
files - interact with your tools and access all your different communities under
one roof. One single identity and place for all your teams: no need to switch
accounts, work and chat with people from different organisations in public or
private rooms: from professional projects to school trips, Riot will become the
center of all your discussions!

Now with end-to-end encryption! You can view and verify your various devices in
the user settings page.

Features include:

* Instantly share messages, images, videos and files of any kind within groups of any size
* Voice and video 1-1 and conference calling via WebRTC
* End-to-end encryption using Olm ([https://matrix.org/git/olm])
* See who's reading your messages with read receipts
* Communicate with users anywhere in the Matrix.org ecosystem - not just Riot users!
* Discover and invite users by email address
* Participate in guest-accessible public rooms
* Highly scalable - supports hundreds of rooms and thousands of users
* Fully synchronised message history across multiple devices and browsers
* Finely configurable notification settings, synchronised over all devices
* Infinite searchable chat history
* Permalinks to messages
* Full message search
* Excellent support for all Android device sizes and orientations

Note that the F-Droid release does not use GCM for notifications - instead it
will keep syncing in the background. If you find that the ongoing background
sync is using too much battery, you can add a delay or change the timeout of the
sync or even disable background sync completely, in the settings page.

For developers:

* Riot is a Matrix client - built on the Matrix.org open standard and ecosystem, providing interoperability with all other Matrix compatible apps, servers and integrations
* Entirely open sourced under the permissive Apache License - get the code from [https://github.com/vector-im/riot-android]. Pull requests welcome!
* Trivially extensible via the open Matrix Client-Server API ([https://matrix.org/docs/spec])
* Run your own server! You can use the default matrix.org server or run your own Matrix home server (e.g. [https://matrix.org/docs/projects/server/synapse.html])

Coming soon:

* Add your own integrations, bridges and bots!
* Email notifications of missed messages and invites
* Screen sharing
* Login as multiple users at the same time

Discover truly efficient and open collaboration with Riot!

'''AntiFeatures:'''

* NonFreeNet - Currently the integration server is not configurable in this client and linked to the non-free New Vector implementation. Free alternatives exists but supporting them in Riot Android is still being worked on.
=Maintainer Notes=
TODO: update ndk version to latest for next build!
Upstream puts their library aars inside the repo, we need build them our self. We truncate instead of deleting them such that the initial gradle clean is successful.
jitsi-meet needs react-native which we get via npm. This pulls in a few prebuilt binaries for now :-/.
We also need to provide an up to date version of npm and nodejs, neither of which can be found in debian jessie, so we download the upstream provided nodejs bundle which includes npm.
Then we walk through olmsdk, jitsi-meet, matrixsdk (which needs those other two, at least partly) and finally riot, which needs all three dependencies.

Currently pinned jitsi-lib version needs a few hacks to still build from source: https://github.com/vector-im/riot-android/issues/2507
