Not sure who the right people to talk to about this is as I understand some Intel folks are the main contributors for the win32 portion of cordova-windows.
I'm curious if anyone has looked at using Google's "Chrome Frame" plugin as a way to get support for pre-IE9 based windows systems. Although Chrome Frame won't work out of the box with embedded webviews according to here<http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/chrome-frame-getting-started/chrome-frame-faq#TOC-Does-Google-Chrome-Frame-support-.NET-WebBrowser-Maxthon-and-similar-browsers->, it is open-source and under a BSD-style license. Chrome Frame feels like it would be a rather clever way to get win32 support for setups that don't have IE9 or greater (or for web developers that don't want to rely on the trident rendering engine at all). Of course keeping app distributables small is also important since we wouldn't want to distribute a 30MB+ dependency with each app. To solve this, the integration could be designed such that the Chrome Frame framework was downloaded and installed silently in the background and only when needed/requested. Not the most desirable solution, but perhaps a necessary evil to gain Windows XP & Vista support. Thoughts? -Jared
