It's a library. It's published on NPM, and on dist.apache.org. It's depended on by cordova-cli and cordova-plugman, which I'm proposing to release simultaneously with it, and which unquestionably *are* end-user software (unless you want to debate the term "end-user", but our usual definition covers developers making Cordova apps.)
Whether -lib is end-user software or not, it's a thing we release. Ian (FWIW, I don't see any reason *not* to consider it end-user software. It provides the programmatic interface to all of the logic in the CLI tools. If someone wanted to integrate the Cordova build process into another tool, like an IDE or an automated build system, I would be thrilled if they chose to use cordova-lib and called it directly from Node, rather than spawning shells to invoke the CLI.)
