Hey I know that we've been talking about this for a while, but I think that we've let the 4.0.x branch go on for too long without releasing it and moving it back into mainline. It's getting super insane feature creep and I would rather do a 4.0.x and a 5.0.x instead of cramming more stuff into the current release branch.
I know that we don't really have consensus on the API, and there are some minor API changes that I want to see, like a renaming of CordovaWebView to CordovaWebViewInterface, but I think it's better to see this out the door by the end of 2014 instead of sometime next year, or never. I'm finishing off the MozillaView in the next two weeks, and that has been an interesting experience shedding light on what I think really needs to be documented/hacked/flensed in the next version of Cordova. That being said, we need to get the features that we have landed out sooner rather than later, and while we could try for perfect, we should go with what we have now for the most part, just to get it out there. Thoughts? Joe
