+
+We are happy to announce that `Apache Cordova 7.0.0` has been released!
+
+Most notable changes include:
+
+* [cordova@7.0.0](https://www.npmjs.org/package/cordova)
+* [cordova-lib@7.0.0](https://www.npmjs.org/package/cordova-lib)
+* [plugman@1.5.0](https://www.npmjs.com/package/plugman)
+*
[cordova-app-hello-world@3.12.0](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-app-hello-world)
+* [cordova-common@2.0.3](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-common)
+* [cordova-create@1.1.0](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-create)
+* [cordova-fetch@1.1.0](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-fetch)
+
+* If a `package.json` does not exist in your project, it will be
auto-created for you when `cordova prepare` is called.
+* When adding a platform or plugin, the previous default behavior of
not-saving has changed to saving. Now it will automatically save that platform
or plugin to your `config.xml` and `package.json`. Details about platform and
plugin versions are also automatically saved in `config.xml` and
`package.json`. The `--save` flag is no longer required to save. Use `--nosave`
to prevent saving to `config.xml` or `package.json`.
+* Fetch is now the default method for fetching platforms. Fetch uses your
system `npm` to `npm install` modules into your project. The `--fetch` flag is
no longer required. Use the `--nofetch` flag to revert to pre-`Cordova@7.0`
behavior (`npm install` is not used to fetch modules).

Excuse my ignorance, but what does "bunde that directory" mean?
Does this in effect mean the platforms are now normal node_modules that can
be handled like normal libraries?
