We're trying to get consensus on whether or not Bootstrap or another framework is included in the next major release. Ron has posted a questionairre of sorts here:

http://ux.joomla.org/forum/Visual-Design/481-UI-Options-and-Bootstrap#481

One of the reasons for using a framework like this is to offer a standard for markup so that devs won't have to recreate the wheel for using ui elements not in core extensions, extensions will be more consistent and templates will "just work" with more 3PD extensions.

If you have an opinion on the subject, please weight in. Thanks!

Hello Andrea,

In my opinion, there are not much reason to a big discussion if this
should or not included on J!3.0, because we have to standardize the
codes, and one of the best approach would use what is available for
the public and what they are already familiar with.

I'm +1 to include Bootstrap to Joomla.

Bootstrap offers a complete documentation of how to use the framework
and will be no excuse to developer not adopt on their extensions...
