Pardon my ignorance, but could someone give me a rundown of what bootstrap is, and how it works?
Pre-made css for design-handicapped people like me and web design framework for designers.

#12Love the new stuff - any reason why you removed the animation effects of button presses? I always thought that was one of the coolest pieces of bootstrap
I'm curious about this as well. I was checking out the 2.0-wip earlier today and all of the button animations remained intact.

#13Glad to see that Bootstrap 2.0 is out. Been following along on the 2.0-wip for the last couple days and very impressed with the new Responsive Design. One slight problem (Chrome, Mac OSX Lion): http://i.imgur.com/SOrUZ.png
Your browser is probably loading in the CSS and/or image assets from it's cache of what Bootstrap v1.4 looked like, thus looking mangled when it runs the 2.0 HTML structure.
A couple of refreshes (does Chrome have Shift + R for forcing reload without cache?) should sort it out.

A massive boon for us has been the ability to rapidly prototype UI concepts for clients. People definitely prefer interacting with tangible objects over flat wireframes. The more complex the UI paradigm you're trying to represent, the more likely you should be using the bootstrap.

#15This looks amazing! Can't wait to add this to some of my already-in-the-works projects. Was hoping you'd release this before I had to launch ;)

#16In your opinion, what is the mobile equivalent of Bootstrap or what combination of JS/CSS packages can function as a bootstrap-type jumpstart?
I have a personal project that uses Bootstrap but it pains me to use it on my mobile device.
The js templating (loading JSON data into the view) that I do is a necessary part but I'd be willing to hardcode.

#17Can someone compare and contrast Boostrap 2.0 with ZURB Foundation?
I've been using Foundation for a new project and am really digging the responsive layout features.

Mobile was a consideration with this version, and it has a nice responsive layout.

Depending on what you're after, there's either the native app lookalike : http://www.chocolatechip-ui.com/
or you could go with a collapsible column grid along the lines of http://fluidbaselinegrid.com/ where by you have the one code base for mobile and desktop browsers.
Re: Bootstrap 2.0, From Twitter
#20Bootstrap is great for tools, apps where the functionality is more important than everything, which is great and I use it. But for regular client websites where design is crucial (and I'm sure it wasn't meant totally for this) is almost never usable in my case. Clients want very customized functionality and looks almost all the cases. So I end up using only a few things. But I'm sure this wasn't its original purpose.
