Thanks Lorin. Exciting times for us to see this in Apache. ;) --
Ken Wallis Product Manager – WebWorks BlackBerry 289-261-4369 ________________________________________ From: Lorin Beer [lorin.beer....@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2013 8:26 AM To: dev Subject: Re: blackberry 10 migration pulled into apache: github.com/blackberry/ cordova-blackberry to future branch cordova-js to future branch cordova-cli to apache future-bb10 branch cordova-plugman to apache future branch spoke briefly with Anis concerning merging into plugman and cli, this will likely wait until Fil Maj is back from Max. The plugman changes seem to be orthogonal to the master/future branch (ie non-breaking). as for cordova-js and cordova-blackberry, plan is to merge those as soon as docs are in place. It can take a few hours for the github mirrors to catch up to git-apache, but retarget those pull requests anytime.
