    -# Plugin Specification
    -
    -The `plugin.xml` file is an XML document in the `plugins` namespace:
    -`http://apache.org/cordova/ns/plugins/1.0`. It contains a top-level
    -`plugin` element that defines the plugin, and children that define the
    -structure of the plugin.
    -
    -A sample plugin element:
    +# Plugin.xml
     
    -    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    -    <plugin xmlns="http://apache.org/cordova/ns/plugins/1.0"
    -        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    -        id="com.alunny.foo"
    -        version="1.0.2">
    +Plugin.xml file defines the structure and settings required for your plugin. It has several elements to provide details about your plugin.
     
    -## _plugin_ Element
    +## plugin
     
    -The `plugin` element is the plugin manifest's top-level element. It
    -features the following attributes:
    +  The `plugin` element is the plugin manifest's top-level element.
     
    -* `xmlns` (required):
    -  The plugin namespace, `http://apache.org/cordova/ns/plugins/1.0`. If
    -  the document contains XML from other namespaces, such as tags to be
    -  added to the `AndroidManifest.xml` file, those namespaces should
    -  also be included in the top-level element.
    +  Attributes(type) | Description
    +  ---------------- | ------------
    +  xmlns(string) | *Required* <br/> The plugin namespace, `http://apache.org/cordova/ns/plugins/1.0`. If the document contains XML from other namespaces, such as tags to be added to the `AndroidManifest.xml` file, those namespaces should also be included in the <plugin> element.
    +  id(string) | *Required* <br/> A reverse-domain style identifier for the plugin.

    Right. I am not sure if that has a specific name. I will just use npm-style identifier.

> Plugin specification (http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/plugin_ref/spec.html) needs to be modified as per the new reference structure. 
> General guidelines:
> - While giving examples, keep them short. Do not repeat for all plugins/platforms.
> - Remove all references to cordova plugin registry.
> - Remove Tizen references. The platform is deprecated (http://markmail.org/message/hryg6sjswecpgndu)
> - Keep information up to date for the platforms, CLI and plugins
