I am in favor of keeping it running without making any updates. There is fairly high % of users using cordova cli version < cordova 5 (~25% based on survey responses). Since our survey is not yet broadly publicized, but only using twitter, this number is likely higher. We should look at

Sorry for not responding earlier. I like where this is going. I have a bunch of comments on the PRs. I have some confusion around how CordovaPlugin has a protected field 'permissions' and what a derived CordovaPlugin is supposed to do with it. None of our core plugins seem to use it. Thanks,

I'm fine with merging cordova-android to master. For the plugins, that have marshmallow changes if we merge now we cannot release them till cordova-android & the corresponding tools release happens. On the other side, if we do not merge them CI will be broken. It makes sense to merge it all if

+1 to major version rev. for plugins. It also is a signal these plugins will not work with any previous version of cordova. For reviewing changes, can you submit a PR perhaps from your topic branch to apache/cordova-android 5.x-dev branch? It's hard to review and comment on branch diffs - PRs

Can you explain why latest plugins will not be compatible with older versions of Cordova? Can this be avoided by any means? When you mean they would not be compatible - will it result in a build or runtime failure? For marshmallow, what is the guidance that we need to issue to the larger
