Windows8 and Contacts Api

["Sergey Grebnov (Akvelon)" <v-...@microsoft.com>]

Hi,
Contacts Api is marked as supported on Windows8 as per Platform support overview page [1] but there is no windows8 related code[2] and windows8 is not marked as supported on plugin info page[3].
Could someone confirm that it is not supported on windows8 (can someone update the page[1] in this case) or point me to the related source code?

[3] http://docs.phonegap.com/en/3.2.0/cordova_contacts_contacts.md.html

Thx!
Sergey

It is NOT supported on win8 because there is no central contact store. [1] is an error. 
On windows8 any app can be a contact provider by extending and registering the interface, but the API does not provide create functionality.
