Can you provide an example of brittleness? I'm curious what the perceived failings are.

I think it was more around the fact that the tests pass/fail randomly it seems.

Can we properly reflect that in the audit document, then?

I think the latest cordova-android release dropped support for Android 4, no?

4.1 and up are still supported, it was just 4.0.x that was dropped

| * currently not sync which is how default alerts work | ||
| * window.alert still available but says index.html | ||
| * Recommendation: Deprecate! Encourage use of HTML/CSS/JS divs instead. |

I really hope the dialogs plugin does not go away for the following reasons:
For example my https://github.com/brodybits/Cordova-sqlite-bootstrap-test sample uses the dialogs plugin. |

May I suggest we pull download numbers once more, and compare against the 2015 numbers? Might provide a bit more insight. |
format table content formatting formatted and updated table for plugin downloads added updated data and charts for cordova plugin downloads
updated data+ charts for cordova plugin downloads
| * Can we treat some urls consistency across all platforms? Possibly use Flex Air package for inspiration. | ||
| * ex: app:, temp:, | ||
| * cdvfile wasn’t consistent enough across platforms | ||
| * Recommendation: Keep. Work on creating more consistency across platforms. Especially with cdvfile. Create phonegap-plugin-file with improved api. |

Worth noting that our current implementation is a superset of the actual W3C spec: https://www.w3.org/TR/FileAPI
Things like FileEntry and similar APIs look to be discontinued now.
Our implementation is out of date.
