[PMC] Password management for services we use

Suggestion: https://github.com/1Password/1password-teams-open-source

Instead of putting passwords in a text file in the private PMC svn.

I don't think the PMC thing is correct. Was this generated in Whimsy? May
be a whimsy bug. I think we added Dave Alden and Tim Brust since Bryan
Ellis.

This is correct (auto generated). All 3 were added on the same day, but the
system probably chose the first based on its sorting (alphabetical most
like).

IMO I would generally avoid this type of thing unless it was a really

Re: Transferring Cordova issues on GitHub

Not sure what they think about installing Probot:

Seems like a good compromise -- since we have write permissions for
the source and target repos.

Re: Latest cordova-android version not in maven repository

[Shazron]

Uploading to bintray/maven is not required for a release, but it is a
nice to have that we have always relied on.
Since it is done post-release, perhaps we can have some automation
(cordova-status?) that checks for these things that can be overlooked.

Re: [PR] "Create a Minimal Reproduction Repository or Sample"

[Shazron]

I feel to repro an issue all we need is:
1. config.xml
2. contents of the 'www' folder

This assumes that they've already `--save`d their platforms and
plugins, and we can just put it in a new project and run `cordova
prepare` to populate. We could even have a command (?) somehow to
package this up for attaching to a bug...

Re: Nomination for a new chair for Apache Cordova

[Shazron]

Thank  you everyone.
It looks like we have consensus (and votes by PMC members).
According to "How to change your PMC's Chair" I have prepared the
resolution below that I will send in 24 hours.
The change should be in effect if the Board approves it, at the next
Board meeting on Dec 19, 2018


-

## Resolution to change the chair of a project

A. Change the Apache Cordova Project Chair

   WHEREAS, the Board of Directors heretofore appointed Shazron
Abdullah (shazron) to the office of Vice President, Apache Cordova,
and

   WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is in receipt of the resignation
   of Shazron Abdullah from the office of Vice President, Apache Cordova,
   and

   WHEREAS, the Project Management Committee of the Apache Cordova
   project has chosen by vote to recommend Jesse MacFadyen
(purplecabbage) as
   the successor to the post;

   NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that Shazron Abdullah is relieved and
   discharged from the duties and responsibilities of the office
   of Vice President, Apache Cordova, and

   BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Jesse MacFadyen be and hereby is
   appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache Cordova, to
   serve in accordance with and subject to the direction of the
   Board of Directors and the Bylaws of the Foundation until
   death, resignation, retirement, removal or disqualification, or
   until a successor is appointed.

Nomination for a new chair for Apache Cordova

[Shazron]

Hello beloved Community!
I have been the chair of Apache Cordova since around April 2014 (~4.5 years).

The duties are mostly administrative: board reports, PMC management
etc. Some of it is listed here in the README:
https://github.com/apache/cordova-apache-board-reports

I think it is time for new leadership. I have decided to resign my
duties as the Apache Cordova chair, hopefully for the upcoming new
year of 2019.

I nominate Jesse MacFadyen as the next chair. Jesse has been with me
at the start when Cordova was PhoneGap. Although we didn't give birth
to it, we helped work on improving Cordova from being an infant to
adulthood (together with our great team), particularly on cordova-ios.
10 years is adulthood in software!

He has also contributed greatly to the other platforms and tooling,
particularly cordova-windows. He has the most experience with helping
run the Cordova project out of the remaining active contributors.

As an Apache Member (https://www.apache.org/foundation/members.html)
he also understands and helps uphold 'The Apache Way'
(https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html) and will be a
great liaison with the Board.

I'm not going anywhere and I will still contribute to the project in
my areas of expertise.

Thank you.

Re: vote duration discrepancy

[Shazron]

FWIW the only reference I see for an emergency (security) patch vote
is here: https://httpd.apache.org/dev/voting.html#emergency for the
HTTP Server project.
However, that document is deemed obsolete. I believe it has been
superseded by the Security patch release process.

Re: vote duration discrepancy

[Shazron]

To be honest I didn't expect the vote to end so fast especially with
the notice "Voting will go on for a minimum of 48 hours." in the vote
thread itself.
If this was expressed as a duration of 24 hours and expressed as an
emergency (I know it was implied, but for some rules are rules), I
think we would have been fine with that -- but the vote did say 48
hours.On Fri, Sep 28, 2018 at 11:35 PM Shazron

Re: vote duration discrepancy

[Shazron]

Jesse sums up what I would have said. We all agreed on the 48 hours
(somewhere way back), especially with our project with 60+ repos where
we were changing rapidly (not so much now of course), and 72 hours was
too late for a release.

48 seems to be a good midpoint for the rule to include people from all
geographic timezones. 72 hours would have been OK if we only had to do
one release, like the http server project (that was the genesis of the
foundation itself..)

Re: [iOS] State of Xcode 10 support

[Shazron]

I think we should just bake in this build flag (implicitly) for the
next cordova-ios release, in the interim. I haven't tested on Xcode 9
whether this will cause problems on the command line, I hope not.

Re: [BOARD REPORT DRAFT] Sept 2018 Cordova Board Report

[Shazron]

I think we shouldn't base anything on _now_ so we don't have a moving target.
In any case, we just have to choose one method, and what we choose we
can just cache a snapshot of it, consistently, to mark possible
trends.
I used to compile stats manually but abandoned it:

Re: [BOARD REPORT DRAFT] Sept 2018 Cordova Board Report

[Shazron]

Thanks Jan!
Some issues with the queries, the math doesn't add up.

Referring to Sept Q3.

Issues created - 103 open, 62 closed --> 165 total issues created
Issues closed -   53 closed --> 9 issues less from 62 above

PRs created - 51 open, 257 closed/merged -->  308 total PRs created
PRs closed/merged - 299 closed/merged --> 9 issues less from 62 above

The small discrepancy is no big deal for now -- I'll take the stats
from the 'Created' query for the board report.

Let's get this process down right for next quarter, if we don't get it
in time for this one.
Yes, the reporting dates are in the README for tge repo for the draft report.

What Julio said -- broad strokes only.
Julio -- if we have those numbers, we could add them. Unless it's an
automatic process, it won't be reliable.

Re: [DISCUSS] [JIRA -> GitHub Issues] The way forward

[Shazron]

I think we have to take a look at whether we actually *will* look at
GH Issues *and* JIRA. This assumes that us, with limited time and
resources will actually do it.
I don't think I will, tbh. The issues are not lost, they are still in
JIRA for reference when the user wants to take it up again.

This is just declaring issue bankruptcy (a detached break, Cortés
burning his ships) and requiring the user to re-file if still relevant
(they get an email notification), and puts the onus on the user, for
them to have a stake in issues they have so that they can get
resolved. They must be part of this and care also, we can't babysit
everything. We are a technically a volunteer operation here, I think
it's too much for us to maintain two sources of issues. We already
have a lot on our plate already, IMO.

That being said, I will go with the consensus on this list (if we
believe we have consensus), and I will bring it up again in a few
months time to see where we are with JIRA, and I will do my best with
bridging the two personally.

Re: [DISCUSS] [JIRA -> GitHub Issues] The way forward

[Shazron]

Back of the napkin calculation... if we took 5 mins (which is quite
conservative) to migrate one by one, 1,811*5 = 9,055 minutes (or ~19
days of 8 hours a day full time). That's about a month of work for one
person (not including weekends), but realistically it will be greater
than this of course, definitely a few months. (of course the work can
be run in parallel with more people...)

Re: [DISCUSS] [JIRA -> GitHub Issues] The way forward

[Shazron]

Realistically doing it one by one will take a very long time, nor is
it necessary -- as a volunteer or if you were paid by your employer.
Some of these issues might be not relevant anymore. If it was
relevant, they can re-file in GH. I really don't want this to drag out
for another year.

In my proposal - nothing will be moved, everything will be closed,
with a note to re-file in GH if relevant. There will be no "dangling"
issues - it's like what you've seen in some open sourced projects,
"Closing this stale issue. Re-open if still relevant" (but we say
re-file).

Thanks Jan - I will hold off until we are ready of course.

Raphael - close as in there can not be any more comments added or
additions to the issue, not deletion. They will still exist and be
searchable. We definitely can add a label when we close them.

Re: [DISCUSS] [JIRA -> GitHub Issues] The way forward

[Shazron]

I've done this for our JIRA:
- I've changed "Resolved" issues to "Closed" (about 8000+ of them)
- I've changed issues with "No Component" to the relevant component

What's left:
- We have 1881 Open, Reopened or In Progress issues
- 474 were created in the last year (52 weeks)
- thus 1,407 were created more than a year ago
- 199 were created in the last 6 months (26 weeks)

What's next:
1. I can Bulk Resolve all issues with a comment so the reporters will
know where to re-file, with instructions, and point them to
issues.cordova.io [FAST]
OR
2. I can Bulk Resolve issues by component, and point them to the right
GH repo to file the new issue [SLOW]

Since this is a bulk operation, if we still need to keep some issues
open in JIRA, we need to tag with a label so I can skip those.

Re: What to do with cordova-discuss?

[Shazron]

It's mainly about discoverability, now that we have `cordova` repo
itself (one stop shop for general issues?). `discuss` repo was there
as you mentioned for historical reasons. Now that we have the
`cordova` repo, and we can discuss in the Issues of that repo, another
repo for discussion is redundant IMO. We could move issues from one
repo to another, if need be (not sure how, without some bot like
Probot)

In any case if we don't want to move that is fine as well, since all
PRs and Issues are reflected in the commits@ mailing list (which is
the most important record-keeping thing for Apache).

Re: What to do with cordova-discuss?

[Shazron]

I think we should stick to one repo --
https://github.com/apache/cordova and archive the discuss repo.
We should point to that one repo for all things Cordova w.r.t to dev.

I would assume since we (committers) can create a New Label in Github,

Re: Documentation and plugin search is not working

Doc search is back up, thanks to Algolia for finding the issue!
There are some recommendations for us to update our docs to minimize
disruption with changes, I will update the JIRA issue -- I probably
will migrate it to a Github Issue first and link it.

You can debug what requirements it tries to detect for MSBUILD by running:

Repro steps:

```
npm install -g cordova
cordova create foo
cd foo
cordova platform add https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows#6.0.1
cordova run
```

Pre-requisites:
- Visual Studio 2017 Community installed with defaults

- Set env var `MSBUILDDIR` to 'C:\Program Files
(x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\15.0\Bin'

[DISCUSS cordova-windows@6.0.1 patch release

[Shazron]

Had trouble meeting the requirements to build, using VS 2017 Community edition
I had to set the MSBUILDDIR env var explicitly to C:\Program Files
(x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\15.0\Bin since
our code fails to detect the MSBuild version installed with that,
v15.8.

The registry entry it checks still has MSBuild v4 from the .NET
Framework -- so perhaps our detection is outdated.

After I added the env var, I could `cordova build`.
`cordova run` guided me to change some settings and run in elevated
permissions, and I ran `cordova run` again.

The app launches, and I get a 'broken image` icon for the splash
screen. Is this a known issue?

Re: WKWebView plugin - issues before baking it in to cordova-ios

[Shazron]

Julio,
Darryl mentioned " iframes being cross origin (so no accessing the
parent/child document)" which means that it is a break from existing
UIWebView behaviour that users expect, that will now break. There are
workarounds: 
https://medium.com/@DrawandCode/how-to-communicate-with-iframes-inside-webview-2c9c86436edb
but this is not very cross-platform, nor something we want to
encourage further. Like Jesse said, it happens to work with UIWebView
-- not something we actively support.

There is a software philosophy (probably some Microsoft camp) that
says you shouldn't break users when you upgrade -- if users rely on a
'bug' for so long (in this case no CORS), it has now become a feature
-- but that is if you control the platform. We however don't have
control over WKWebView, so its not up to us. That is why I am
reluctant to bake in features that workaround some of these security
controls, and instead rely on external plugins (my personal opinion).
It should be an active decision from the developer to override the
controls of WKWebView if they so choose, and we will help with
information on how to do so as a stopgap, not as the ultimate
solution.

Re: Dealing with deprecated repos

[Shazron]

Formal as in this is our policy. From what Julio Cesar Sanchez said earlier:
"This is the deprecation policy from cordova-plugin-contacts

Deprecation Notice
This plugin is being deprecated. No more work will be done on this plugin
by the Cordova development community. You can continue to use this plugin
and it should work as-is in the future but any more arising issues will not
be fixed by the Cordova community.

All the deprecated repos have a similar deprecation notice."

As to where, we just make a new page, say deprecationpolicy.html or
something, and link it from the Contribute page (as a suggestion). If
we run into this again, we point to the policy.

Re: Dealing with deprecated repos

Let's make it formal with what we had in the repo, perhaps a new page
or section in the docs somewhere.

Re: WKWebView plugin - issues before baking it in to cordova-ios

[Shazron]

Apple has other goals with WKWebView (a lot deals with making it more
secure), and I doubt they are aligned with Cordova's goals (although
they did a patch to load file urls for iOS 9 I believe, that helped us
avoid the local webserver route). I think almost all of us know that
WKWebView usage by Cordova is an implementation with a lot of
patchwork, and definitely hacky, so that we can achieve feature parity
with our usage of UIWebView.

Ionic is always welcome to chime in and contribute to the blog post,
and submit patches.

Unfortunately Apple has made the choice for us. We have to move on to
WKWebView, and we will try our best to make it seamless.

Re: WKWebView plugin - issues before baking it in to cordova-ios

[Shazron]

We definitely have to explore this more. I doubt we can ever be
perfect at the first run at it, but we've got to lay the foundation
for the eventual patches.

Re: [DISCUSS] [JIRA -> GitHub Issues] The way forward

[Shazron]

Thanks Jan!

1. Should we just disable those then? One other way is to add in bold
big letters about the deprecation in the New Issue template
2. These links are super useful. Perhaps they should be on the
website, what do you all think? Not sure if the scripting for the
second link is server side or it could be client side as well (via
JavaScript). Perhaps on the https://cordova.apache.org/contribute/
(contribute.cordova.io) page. That massive github link could also be
auto-generated as well on that page, somehow. Let me know how I can
help.

Re: WKWebView plugin - issues before baking it in to cordova-ios

[Shazron]

Our policy has been we support the currently shipping iOS version,
plus one back. This is because of device version testing complexities.
It may work on older iOS versions if we code it with the right
safeguards, but that is not guaranteed. When iOS 12 ships this fall,
we would drop iOS 10 support (support as in testing for it, like I
said it might still work).

We could do the custom scheme -- or just use the Oracle plugin since
that bridges it to using NSURLConnection, which has no restrictions.
This will work on any iOS version. I would opt for the easiest
solution *for now* to get something out.

Using cdvapp://index.html, will all future file:// references in that
index.html file work, or still have the same restrictions? I'll have
to do some tests (unless you know already?)

Regarding the fallback, the point of this bridge plugin is that the
switching is an active decision by the developer (a hard break) and is
to aid in migrating completely to WKWebView. If we had an automatic
fallback, it might be a crutch until its too late and UIWebView is
gone and they are surprised since it was all working "behind the
scenes".

Re: ios-deploy questions

[Shazron]

1. Previously we had node_modules bundled. We couldn't bundle
ios-deploy because of its viral license. The only issue is that it
tries to build on Windows, but that should be easily fixed:
https://github.com/ios-control/ios-deploy/issues/355 . There should be
no problem in using a dependency from the command line, we just have
to prepend the path from `npm bin` to the PATH variable, then run the
executable (just have to exclude Windows from this case).
2. The risk mismatch is only based off the Xcode version installed
since it is built natively and relies on Xcode frameworks (Xcode 9.4
was missing files and ios-deploy had to work around it). We don't
really have a matrix of dependencies, so the latest is always used for
ios-deploy.

Technically we don't even have to install anything now, if we prefix
the npm command with `npx`:
`npx ios-deploy a b c`

npx has been available since npm@5.2.0
According to this: https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/ it would
mean that we can only rely on npx being installed if the user has node
8.2.0, which is a ways off from being our default node version.

Re: WKWebView plugin - issues before baking it in to cordova-ios

[Shazron]

yup, the class name conflict is unavoidable -- it's like when we
integrated the console plugin.

The bridge plugin will be able to load any webview engine plugin that
has already been installed, not just the main 2. I didn't want to
confuse people with too much information, since this is not an Ionic
blog post.

Re: [DISCUSS] cordova--ios 4.5.5 patch release

[Shazron]

Yes 1.9.3 has the fixes. For the future build just update the check_reqs
version.

But it’s not critical since this error is only during build time of the
binary — if they already have this installed it won’t affect them (and if
they don’t — they will get the latest anyway)

[DISCUSS] cordova--ios 4.5.5 patch release

[Shazron]

Some issues , related to an external tool ios-deploy that we use:
node 8.11.2
(note that issues are only related to running and building for device,
related to the ios-deploy tool that we use. Emulator is fine)

I don't think this should hold up the release.

1. ---
# this defaults to building for device and emulator; I had a device plugged in
# error does not show if you don't have a device plugged in
# cordova build --emulator is fine
$ cordova build
(node:18179) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: ios-deploy was not
found. Please download, build and install version 1.9.2 or greater
from https://github.com/phonegap/ios-deploy into your path, or do 'npm
install -g ios-deploy'
(node:18179) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise
rejection. This error originated either by throwing inside of an async
function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was
not handled with .catch(). (rejection id: 1)

rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections that are
not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit
code.

Getting three unhandled promise rejections.

ios-deploy cannot be installed, I haven't checked the issue tracker
for it lately but I think there has been issues filed, that I have to
now address. The error is:

This is a dev list for developing on Cordova itself, not a user list.

Please file an issue at issues.cordova.io if its a bug with complete

WKWebView plugin - issues before baking it in to cordova-ios

[Shazron]

I've done with my review with all the issues that need to resolved
with the plugin before it can be baked in to the platform for a major
version release. I'm going to discuss issues with respect to migration
of developers from UIWebView (features that will be lost or are
different)

1. Cookies don't persist. This is a WebKit bug, but someone has
created a plugin for a workaround. See
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12074
2. Can't delete cookies. This is/was a WebKit bug (2015), need to test
for the iOS 11/12. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11297
3. Can't execute JavaScript code in the background. There are several
issues related to this. See
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12815
4. XmlHttpRequests don't work, because of Cross-Origin Resource
Sharing issue (CORS). There is a workaround plugin created by Oracle
(UPL licensed, which is Apache-2.0 compatible). See
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10143
5. Migration of localStorage from UIWebView. There is a migration
plugin available. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11974

Of course there are several bugs also that need to be resolved. List
here: https://s.apache.org/QfsF

Out of the 5 issues, 3 (external) plugins are available for the
issues, 2 require minor code changes.

For a solution to issue 5, I am proposing a proxy webview engine
plugin that will:
1. Read a preference to use a particular webview engine
2. Proxy the selected webview engine's interface from its interface

This proxy will possibly help with migration and testing, so users can
"beta test" WKWebView now for existing apps (and switch back if there
are problems). This is like a "feature flag" that I mentioned before,
but at runtime, for users.

This proxy webview engine plugin can also possibly help with
InAppBrowser, I'm not sure (since that plugin has more hooks into a
webview's interface).

I've made the redirect changes for the naked domain, as well as www subdomain.

Redirecting http://c.a.o to https://c.a.o - we will have to configure
.htaccess ourselves (there will be no foundation-wide redirects
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-15493?jql=text%20~%20%22http%20redirect%22)

I realize that and that's what I did -- the error message was not
helpful because I thought it would just detect the one in Android
Studio (seems to be specific to Windows?).

Another gotcha: I had to add $ANDROID_HOME/emulator to my PATH to run

[DISCUSS] Cordova-Android 7.1.1 patch release

[Shazron]

Sorry, Android newbie here.

I have Android 3.1.3 installed on macOS, with cordova 8.0.0.
I did:
cordova platform add https://github.com/apache/cordova-android#7.1.1
cordova build

I get this error:
https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/blob/bf29fe0e10334938d2e6ee8116f9a30c762c40b4/bin/templates/cordova/lib/check_reqs.js#L137

Should it be able to detect and use the gradle within Android Studio.app?

Based on code inspection here, it doesn't (isWindows is false, and
thus androidStudioPath is also null):
https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/blob/bf29fe0e10334938d2e6ee8116f9a30c762c40b4/bin/templates/cordova/lib/check_reqs.js#L122

I know the docs say "As of Cordova-Android 6.4.0, Gradle is now
required to be installed to build Android." so perhaps the error
message needs to be tweaked.

Thanks Niklas,
Since you know what needs to be done or has been done with respect to
InAppBrowser - can you highlight any specific tasks or PRs that need to be

WKWebView support for InAppBrowser this week (if I have the bandwidth, but
perhaps next week for a bit).

Re: Roadmap for next major versions

[Shazron]

I was thinking that the feature flag is just a convenience feature for
setting/removing (depends on if the flag is set/omitted):
 in
config.xml

So something like this:
`cordova platform add ios --wkwebview` or something to that effect.

My thinking is -- this would make manual testing easier, and remove
friction for testers in the interim, not to mention automated CI setups. If
it's easier to test, perhaps more people would test it, at least that's
what I hope...

Yeah the custom scheme thing, since it's iOS 11, we might have to tackle
that once we drop iOS 10 support I suppose.

Re: Roadmap for next major versions

[Shazron]

Thanks Darryl,
I'll be working on getting the WKWebView plugin up to snuff this week (read
the comment thread in your doc).
1. Review and resolve all existing PRs
2. Integrate the WKWebView plugin into the cordova-ios repo
3. Turn on WKWebView support via a feature flag (eventually this will be
the default)

I think no. 3 is a good way for interim testing versus having long-lived
branches that might get out of sync. I don't think this will get into the
same situation like `browserify` feature flag that was forgotten, since we
intend to bake this in for sure.

[CDVWebViewEngineProtocol support](
https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/blob/master/CordovaLib/Classes/Public/CDVWebViewEngineProtocol.h)
so we can swap in any webview engine will remain unchanged.

Re: Stepping Back

[Shazron]

Thanks for all the years shepherding this Joe, and being the father of
PhoneGap/Cordova Android!

I'm sure it's been an interesting experience, but now it's time for someone
else to take up the mantle and be the lead for Cordova Android with your
absence. I know everyone will chip in, but ideally we would like someone to
take charge and help drive things.

It'll be a good experience for someone, taking the lead in the direction of
