Why does the device plugin have both a src/windows and a src/windows8 folder? Under what circumstances does the src/windows8 get used? My understanding is that 'windows8' was soft deprecated and as of 3.6 just maps to 'windows'. I know that if you run 'cordova platform add windows8', it will still use the src/windows folder when you add the device plugin.
I looked through the other plugins to see what they were doing, but they are very inconsistent: Some (like device-orientation, dialogs, and media) only have a src/windows8 folder and don't even have a <platform name="windows"> in plugin.xml Some (like statusbar) only have a src/windows folder and don't even have a <platform name="windows8"> in plugin.xml Some (like device-motion, file, and file-transfer) only have a src/windows folder, and both "windows" and "windows8" in plugin.xml point to that folder Some (like contacts and device) have src/windows8 and src/windows folders, used by windows8 and windows respectively in plugin.xml Inappbrowser has a src/windows and a www/windows8, used by windows and windows8 respectively Can anyone explain what's going on here?
