I disagree I have been getting pinged for weeks(months even) now to update the plugins and don't think we should delay.
If we are waiting for cordova 6 to pin cordova-android 5 and cordova-ios 4, that will probably take at least a couple of weeks still. I'll make sure to link the android 5.0 blog post in the plugins release blog post so users know how to update their cordova-android. The draft I sent out for the plugins blog post already has instructions on how to install older versions of plugins. This isn't a problem we can avoid. Many users are going to run into the fact that the plugin they are installing requires updated platforms. Waiting until cordova 6 is unacceptable.
