Joe Bowser resolved CB-3364.
----------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

This isn't out of date per-se.  Both the developer tools, and the path to build the source code without the tools needs to be documented.  Since the tools hide the compile step, it's important for new developers to be able to debug this.

  We've already had people lose time because they did not know how to build without using the scripts. 

The new version is here:
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cordova-android.git;a=commit;h=c9e16b2c39a892bc7dafec9ad89de483f6ddd403

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Task
>          Components: Android
>    Affects Versions: 2.6.0, 2.7.0
>         Environment: Windows
>            Reporter: Angela Fowler

> Some of this also applies to the readme at https://github.com/apache/cordova-android
> 1. Instructions to move the codec jar to the libs folder but this is done in Windows create.js script. Maybe the bash script doesn't download it, perhaps split up the instructions for Windows and Linux/Unix?
> 2. Instructions to install node.js and npm to use the create script but I had problems with npm and uninstalled it. I created projects with create.bat (runs create.js) and use the emulator etc in Eclipse so it would be nice if the README gave more detail about what npm is really needed for.
> 3. Contains references to http://incubator.apache.org/cordova/ and https://github.com/KentBeck/junit which no longer exist
> Also the bin\package.json also refers to the incubator site which doesn't exist
> "url": "http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-cordova-android.git"
> Should a separate issue be created for this?
