In my confused mode (as documented in my last e-mail) when I was wondering what does this "Edit" button do? I went looking for an answer on different Cordova documentation and contributor web pages. No answer was found. I would have thought it should be explained under "Contributing" somewhere and saying that you don't need to be a committer or have a login and that you can't stuff anything up and whatever you contribute will be reviewed by a knowledgeable person before it is committed.
