Attention: Expect a one hour outage on docs.cordova.io. I'll be updating the DNS for docs.cordova.io to use A-records instead of HTTP Redirects because it's faster.
You can still access the docs using the full path: http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/2.4.0 You can also access the PhoneGap Documentation (nearly identical) at http://docs.phonegap.com/ Michael On Tue, Feb 19, 2013 at 4:57 PM, Michael Brooks <mich...@michaelbrooks.ca>wrote: > Yay!
