sorry for late response but been on on 2 weeks vacation did bad
things to
my inbox ;)
No problem max, I know this problem:)
I was wondering - is there a way (at code level) to distinguish between
json type definitions that are automatically enabled by some plugin
because it has detected the use of i.e. cordova.js vs something the
user explicitly enabled ?
Would be nice to allow users to explicit say I want *this* even though
a plugin haven't been able to detect the library matching it. If there
is just one kind of On/Off then the plugin can't know if turning it off
is against the users will or just because he stopped using the related
javascript library.
wdyt ?
I'm sorry but I don't understand very well what you mean. Tern plugin
doesn't use the native javascript library,
so he can work without the javascript library. JSON Type definition is a
JSON which describes the structure of your library
(document has getElementById method, etc). Some JS framework like jQuery
can be described just with this JSON.
tern plugin uses JSON Type Definition and add some feature like managing a
new scope per file (usefull for node.js plugin),managing effect (create an
instance of FileSystem when require('fs') is called).

I think it looks fine.
Cool.
2) I think it should be better to create a github for the cordova tern

You mean a separate git repo ?
Exactly!
Yes, makes sense to me too. Actually thought
that was you and Victor wrote earlier would happen.
Victor - anything besides finding time to do it preventing us from putting
this in a separate github repo ?
btw. I assume you during the build of tern will then fetch the content of
the github repo
I do that at hand because :
1) I have just discovered that we can have submodule with Git.
2) I have forked angular.js, so I don't know very well how I can manage
that with fetch.
and bundle it
or does it require network access at runtime to get it ?
No it doesn't work like this (perhaps in the future of tern.java, using npm
could be interested to update the tern plugin).
3) do you know if cordova provides some api to generate doc? YUI,

I do not know about this. Maybe Gorkem does ?
It should be really cool to do that in order to provide several version of
cordova.js. I have an idea too, to provide a wizard kind to generate tern
plugin version from sources.
