Hey All, If you haven't checked out issue CB-3393[1], you should. I believe this is a pretty big problem and brings into question the way we are loading plugins.
Using an absolute path is not going to work as Braden suggests in the comments of the issue. He proposes adding code to cordova.js that will search for the cordova_plugins.json file and reference it correctly. This feels very hacky to me and will lead to more issues. I believe we need to reconsider how we are loading plugins. I am hoping more people decide to chime in on this discussion.
