Unfortunately they're not. Cordova is an open source project, so it should be releasing *source code*, not binaries. We can release binaries too, but the primary release artifact needs to be a source archive from which the binaries can be built. See [1] and [2] for more details on this. There seems to be a number of other issues too, starting from the facts that there's no NOTICE file and that the top-level LICENSE file mentions no other licenses than ALv2 even though the zip archive contains IP under many different licenses. Also, I'm not sure where we stand on the IP review of all our platform components. We're clearly making progress here, but unfortunately it looks like there still are quite a few changes that need to be made. PS. A good place to make rc packages available for review is your ~/public_html directory on people.apache.org [3].
