Phonegap-Plugins Repo
What is the process to contribute to the Phonegap-Plugins repo
(https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins) ?
I am assuming it is just sending a pull request?
I am also assuming that since it is not part of the official Cordova
project, I would not have to sign the CLA, correct ?
Are there any license requirements to contributing a plugin to this repo? I
noticed some plugins have their own license and are not using the default
MIT license. Just wanted to confirm this as well.

If you want the "exposure" that the phonegap-plugins repo provides, then
yes, you want to use GitHub.
If you follow Mike's advice, the link from github can point to any
openly-accessible repository. Your own hosted git, SVN, bitbucket,
whatever.

So, in this new model, it seems the plugin must still reside on GitHub since you're still using the GitHub pull request process.
Is there a way to have the plugin code reside in a non-Github repo and just have the pointer to it ?

I highly recommend that your pull request is a README.md that redirects to your plugin's repository, instead of a pull request with the plugin's source code.
Example:
/Android/MyAwesomePlugin/README.md
README.md:
My Awesome Plugin is available at [
github.com/mwbrooks/phonegap-plugin-myawesomeplugin/](http://github.com/mwbrooks/phonegap-plugin-myawesomeplugin/)
Eventually the phonegap-plugins repository will be decommissioned and encourage everyone to host their plugins on their own Github account.

I highly recommend that your pull request is a README.md that redirects to
your plugin's repository, instead of a pull request with the plugin's
source code.
Example:
/Android/MyAwesomePlugin/README.md
README.md:
My Awesome Plugin is available at [
github.com/mwbrooks/phonegap-plugin-myawesomeplugin/](http://github.com/mwbrooks/phonegap-plugin-myawesomeplugin/)
Eventually the phonegap-plugins repository will be decommissioned and
encourage everyone to host their plugins on their own Github account.
