The documentation makes reference to an announcement on the blog, which doesn't seem to be available. If anybody wants to keep watch, be my guest: http://blog.getbootstrap.com.

I've been keeping an eye on the pull request (https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/pull/6342) and the gh-pages branch (https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/tree/gh-pages) for other Bootstrap 3 information.

http://twitter.github.io/bootstrap/customize strongly suggests there will be another RC after this one.

Cue a dozen comments about flat buttons.

This looks like a nice set of changes for Bootstrap. I'm not sure how I feel about the grid class name changes, but then again, I went all-in on Foundation a few months back, so it doesn't affect me one way or another.

I'm sure mdo and fat have excellent reasons for using Less instead of Sass, but I'm a Rails user and I like Sass better to boot. Anyway, no matter, I'm glad to see Bootstrap is continuing to push forward!

I've inherited a web application that's held together with invalid HTML and riddled with inline CSS. Got the green light to redo it all.

Replacing all the markup has been on hold pending BS3 (the mobile-first aspect of BS3 seems a big win over BS2), but while waiting I've seen a lot of people talking about Zurb Foundation and its "superior" grid system.

From a purely HTML5+CSS3 point of view, what do you think of BS vs. Zurb?

I've been waiting for the dropdown events that were added. I started a project in Zurb Foundation today due to Zurb having the upper hand in responsive, time to reevaluate it looks like...

It has all sorts of bugs in Safari on my iPad. Switching screen orientation and zooming out cause the left sidebar to cover up the body text, I can sometimes get it to stay zoomed out way too far, and if I try to zoom in Safari crashes every time. Looks very slick though.

Why do people think Zurb's grid system is better? I don't remember it being any different from Bootstrap's grid system.

Clearly, I can't speak to BS3, but the thing I like most about Foundation is the mobile-first grid: build your grid layout using Foundation's 'small-n' classes and it just works on larger screens too. If you want to develop more complex layouts for larger screens, all you have to do is append 'large-n' class names (and now 'medium-n' exists, too).

Do the Foundation developers always need to hijack posts regarding bootstrap? Please stop it, and just submit links to articles discussing why Foundation is better.
