Answer 1

From Wikipedia

PhoneGap and Cordova have the same relationship as Google Chrome and Chromium, respectively. Apache Cordova is an open source project while PhoneGap is more of a framework built around Cordova. In addition, the PhoneGap infrastructure additionally provides such options as paid support, online training, as well as cloud web services that allow you to build the final application without the need for installation on the developer's local computer.
