Yeah, I agree that dumping 8.1 completely would be a lot of work, let move forward without that part.
I think I agree with all your assessments! For the maybes: I think CB-13817 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13817> is less important, as it is something that even MS allows. They changed to call all UAP => UWP but they still have docs that say UAP. I would like to see https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/pull/235 make it in, we'll need to look into the failures. @purplecabbage risingj.com On Thu, Jan 25, 2018 at 3:54 PM, Jan Piotrowski <piotrow...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello. > > After we had to scrap release 5.1.0 because of an unexpected breaking > change (and broken CI and failing tests), I took the time to work a > bit on this and am now planning to go forward with a 6.0.0 release of > cordova-windows soonish. > > Current status: > > Must > - https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/pull/246 (of > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13829) has to be reviewed and > merged > - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13834 has to be analyzed, > fixed, reviewed and merged > > Maybe > - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13817 could implement "UWP" > everywhere we currently use "UAP" (which will be kept as an alias) > - https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/pull/235 should be > reviewed and merged as it is a nice new feature for Windows > > After > - Later https://github.com/apache/cordova-docs/pull/785 needs some > more work so docs at least partially match reality when 6.0.0 will be > released > > Am I missing anything? > > In the last release email Jesse suggested dropping 8.1 alltogether. > After spending some time with the code this would a) be super nice as > soooo much stuff could be deleted and removed but also b) pretty hard > as it is all connected and interwoven.
