Just wanted to give a update Support for both of these now exists in plugman + CLI on master. It seems to be working well enough.
Docs: This is a pretty important piece. Once we release 3.3.0, our users are going to want to know what plugins are supported, what the getting started requirements are, etc. I know FireOS has already sent some doc updates. I would suggest installing all of the plugins you support and run mobile-spec. Once you have confirmed a plugin has full support, add your platform to the supported platform list. Docs can be found at https://github.com/apache/cordova-docs/ *FireOS* Plugman Tests: I commented out the tests because they need work. They rely to heavily on a copy paste job of the android tests. I had to update the plugin.xml files for the three plugins in the tests to add support for amazon-fireos just to get the tests to run. Check-reqs: right now the requirements are being checked in the cli. We will want to change this to use the platform level chec_reqs script instead. Android made this change recently. Hopefully someone can point you to the specific commits that made the change. This is suffering from the same problem Android just had, in that it is setting the base api level at 17. We should update that number for now and after 3.3.0 work on converting this. *Ubuntu* Tests! We need them! :) Need to make clear that ubuntu option isn't available on Mac or Windows. The error messages aren't clear here. Documentation around this would go a long way! I will continue to give suggestions as I play around more with both of these platforms. Please file issues for any of the work you do and use those in the commit messages. The 3.3.0-rc.1 will be tagged & released tomorrow. I will tag both of these platforms leading up to the release. I'm aiming to release 3.3.0 next Wed or Thursday. So we will still have some time to improve the experience for users who will be trying out these platforms for the first time.
