My primary goal for the 8.0 default templates is to simplify the stylesheet to enable quick changing of colors and sizes and have as few images as possible (have replaced some of the images with similar looking html symbols). Am pondering whether bootstrap can be compatible with that.
For widgets we should really stick with jquery ui since it's already installed and used.
I am doing some responsive resizing for small screens in version 8's style, that's just CSS media queries. You can change and turn stuff on and off with media queries in the current stylesheet already, example:
@media screen and (min-width: 300px) and (max-width: 750px) { /* Styles for small screens. */ .navbutton a { font-size: 12px; padding-right: 0; margin-right: 0; } }
A twitter bootstrap theme is now available via the Admin -> Themes -> Add Themes page. Suggestions for improvements to it are welcome. I don't think I made use of any of the glyphicons yet, will have to look into that.
In the future I may be looking at adding bootstrap class names as dummies to the standard templates so that bootstrap themes don't have to be almost entirely marked as customized.

As your site software is so many configurations, it might be difficult to adapt.
The images are stored in a 34kb scalable sprite. The sprite is not free so a new one needs to be made.
The text and classes also scale by screen resolution and size. Divs can be turned on and off for phones, tabs and desktops.
Seems most cms and directories are moving to this architecture.

No worries Paul, just a suggestion. Can individually implement if necessary. Take care.
