title: How do Adobe PhoneGap and Apache Cordova differ?
body: <p>So far, I haven't been able to find a "plain English" explanation of the difference between Apache Cordova and PhoneGap, and when to use either of them.</p>
  
  <p>I'm looking to build an app with one of them, and I have the following constraints:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>It needs to be open source (preferably GPL, APL2, etc.)</li>
  <li>It needs to have a good dev community backing it (and preferably good docs)</li>
  <li>It needs to take the same javaScript and use it produce native binaries for Android, iOS, Windows Phone and Blackberry (write once, run anywhere)</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>If both these libraries/SDKs can accomplish these requirements, then how do I determine which project to go with? Is this a "Jenkins/Hudson" thing or are they really two separate projects? Thanks in advance!</p>
