ExternalScreen plugin
Hi Everyone!
I've got a PhoneGap plugin that I think could be useful to the community, and wanted to inquire about merging it with the main phonegap-plugins branch (I have no idea who actually does this). The plugin enables a second/multi screen experience on iOS devices.
You can read about the plugin here:
http://www.tricedesigns.com/2012/01/12/multi-screen-ios-apps-with-phonegap/
And the source is available in my fork of the phonegap-plugins repository:
https://github.com/triceam/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/iPhone/ExternalScreen
I was hoping someone could merge this, or it would be greatly appreciated if anyone could let me know who manages the main repository. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Thanks,

I looked, but I have not found any Android devices or APIs capable for a
second screen experience. If you are aware of any, please let me know.
I haven't looked into BlackBerry or WP7 APIs yet to see if it is possible,
but was toying with the idea.
Thanks,
Andrew Trice

Very cool plugin Andrew! Do you have any plans to add Android, BlackBerry,
or WP7 support?

Already merged.
I think your multi screen plugin would be amazing for games. You could
design a game that you could play on a tablet or tablet/computer
combo.

Awesome, thanks! I just submitted a pull request... I had no idea that
existed. I wish Android supported additional screens, but I couldn't dig
up any details or devices that can handle more than one screen.
Thanks,

You just need to send a pull request from your branch to
phonegap/phonegap-plugins repo. I saw the post about a week ago and
thought it was great. Then lamented the fact that Android doesn't have
something similar.
