----
-
-We are happy to announce that `Cordova Android 6.2.1` has been released!
-
-This release has fixed issues introduced by the **Android SDK Tools 25.3.1** release. **Google** dropped support for the `android` binary, so `cordova-android` has now adopted support for the `avdmanager` and `sdkmanager` binaries. We have also taken the opportunity to rewrite how we use gradle on the user's system. `cordova-android` now requires *Android Studio* or *Gradle* to be installed on the user's system.
-
-This release also adds support for the `<resource-file>` element in `config.xml` which copies specified files during a `cordova prepare`. This allows providing arbitrary files such as special notification-sized icons, or API configuration JSON files.
-
-To upgrade:
-
- npm install -g cordova
- cd my_project
- cordova platform update android@6.2.1
-
-To add it explicitly:
-
- cordova platform add android@6.2.1
-
-This release will have to be explicitly added until the upcoming `cordova@7` release, where it will be pinned as the default android platform.

-## What's new in Android
-* [CB-12621](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12621) reverted elementtree dep to 0.1.6
-* [CB-12614](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12614) Adding headers to tests
-* [CB-8978](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8978) Prepare copy `resource-files` from `config.xml`
-* [CB-12605](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12605) Fix a requirements check failure on **Windows**
-* [CB-12595](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12595) This should find an **Android Studio** installation and use the sweet gradle center found inside
-* [CB-12546](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12546) leverage `avdmanager` if `android` warns it is no longer useful, which happens in **Android SDK Tools 25.3.1**. Explicitly set the `CWD` of the spawned emulator process to workaround a recent google android sdk bug. Actually include the `android_sdk_version.bat` file in generated `cordova-android` projects for our lovely **Windows** users.
-* [CB-12524](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12524) Fix for missing gradle template error. This now fetches the template from inside of the **Android Studio** directory, and falls back to a locally installed Gradle instance
-* [CB-12465](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12465) Writing new JUnit Test Instrumentation to replace tests and retire problematic tests
