To: callback-dev@incubator.apache.org Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=f46d041826c65eb5a304b66e5b1a X-Virus-Checked: Checked by ClamAV on apache.org --f46d041826c65eb5a304b66e5b1a Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 I have just gone through a couple days of frustration and circles due to an unexplained error message. It turned out to be a problem with the whitelist (which is broken), multiplied by indescriptive errors which only show up on some API versions, and coupled with strong counter indications as to what the issue really was caused by. I'm sorry I can't cast this message in a more positive tone, but I'm more frustrated than inspired at the moment. I've linked to the thread at the bottom of this message. The bottom line is that I think the product you're all working so hard to produce would benefit strongly from a concentrated focus on cross-team communication/synchronization, documentation, and cross-platform documentation. (Or maybe I'm just a pampered Rails developer?) I might even suggest moving from the existing wiki system to the github one, so as users will be encouraged to contribue through having existing accounts. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/phonegap/9NZ4J4l1I-s Thanks, --Peter --f46d041826c65eb5a304b66e5b1a--
