Future of python on android

Hi all,

I was using sl4a for quite some time on android and it basically
worked very well although some features are missing. It looks like
sl4a is dead, although I could be wrong. Does anyone knowledgeable
have any further info on the future of sl4a? For instance it doesn't
work with android 5 and there doesn't seem to be any activity around
it for the past couple of years.

If sl4a is out, what's the preferred way of running python on android?
Guido is still working at google, right? This makes me suspect that
python is ought to be part of the android ecosystem but can't find
anything else beyond sl4a.

So what's the future proof way of writing/deploying/installing python
programs on android?

Cheers,
Daniel
