#12> Dropped all things fluid. We removed the fluid grid system, fluid container, and fluid layout. Damn. That is very handy when you want to have even sub columns inside of an odd-sized parent column.
I was worried when I saw this, but the very next bullet point is:
>Overhauled default grid system. Now uses percentage widths, padding, and box-sizing: border-box instead of pixel widths and margins. Nesting and offsets remain the same.
Which sounds like they are actually making everything fluid, and removing fixed widths. Perhaps a good thing, although border-box means no IE7 support.

#13Really sad they are dropping support for IE7 unfortunately I will not be upgrading to this version then.
_this_. And why drop support for FF 3.6 too? Is there a technical reason to drop support for older browsers or is it idealism?

#14I don't think I saw it on the doc, but is there a projected release date for 3.0? It sounds like there is some pretty awesome updates coming, even though they seem more "back-end" related.
It would be great to get a prospective date in those types of announcements.

#15Does this add the semicolons back in?

#16Some of these like Glyphicons are already in Kickstrap (a Boostrap fork)

#17"Dropped all things fluid."
What are the implications of this? I'm not a web designer, so does that mean that we have to have fixed-width pages? Won't that make it harder to design web apps? Will someone help to clear up my misunderstanding?

The also redid their scaffolding model (grid system) to use percent widths instead of pixel widths, so it seems like the default (and only option) will be for things to behave like the old fluid layouts did.

Looks like for IE7 they did it so they could use border-box.
