Hi everyone,

As I said before, I'm working on the Windows 8.1 port of Cordova base on the 
Windows 8 one.
I sent an email with my first thoughts about the improvements we have to do and 
there are few.

In order to make platform addition easier in future, I created and resolved an 
issue on JIRA CB-5111 where I improve action-stack module in CLI to remove 
static platform check which makes cordova-cli more robust and more dynamic.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5111

In order to develop on CLI and plugman I have to :

*         npm link both

*         use a custom registry to have all plugin up to date with the 
windows81 platform configuration

I found some problems in the platform addition workflow :

*         There is no doc to tell us how to develop on cordova-cli and plugman 
(on plugman repo, there is a paragraph about this, but I think we must provide 
one on cordova wiki or cordova-docs)

*         There is no doc about how to create a custom registry (we have to 
find in cordova-registry repo how it work and this a big waste of time)

*         Allow multiple registry in plugman would be a great improvement to 
help community plugins integration in plugman

*         Mobile-spec tests are only working for unix based OS, so it can work 
only for platforms we can develop on unix. (what about Windows Phone and 
Windows 8 ?)

I'm doing a lot of hacks to test my new platform on my computer which make me 
lose my time.
Someone has ideas ?

Cordialement.
