Don't quote me on this but I think we need to file an infrastructure ticket
to get a firefox OS repo opened. I don't see any reason why you couldn't
commit the JS now. Although on the JS maybe you want to create your own FF
OS branch until it becomes more stable.

Yes,

The JavaScript is all very localized and new / unstable code is only
included in the newly built cordova.b2g.js file.

I would say it is zero risk commiting now.

Would be awesome to get infra to create the cordova-b2g repo and to merge
this in.

Re: Cordova for Firefox OS

2013-01-27 Thread Michael Brooks
Nice work Gord!

I believe Herm Wong has been working on a Cordova Firefox OS implementation
as well. He's spent a number of days at Mozilla and has helped guide some
of their CLI work. Hopefully Herm can chime in on this thread and add some
more detail.

Before we rush a create a repo, we should decide on a name. Otherwise we'll
have another cordova-webworks / cordova-iphone mistakes. I thought the name
Boot2Gecko was deprecated in favour of FireFox OS.
