isnt this what permissive licenses are for?

Yep, they are completely in their right to do so (though the content of the docs site is under Apache 2 so it's a slightly different license). Just wanted to point that out the work might have originated elsewhere.

Another flat CSS theme for bootstrap? How many minutes did that take you? The layout on the site does look nice though. http://flathemes.com/ is your main website, it has a link to download version 1.0.1 (even though github says version 2.0.0 is the latest), then when I click download it says that I have to Like with Facebook or Twitter to download my "free gift" of your BootFlat theme, that rubs me the wrong way.

Stop the hating, please. It has a hugely negative effect on HN in general and on creators specifically. Don't use it if you don't like it. Whenever I come across people who really hate me and my work it takes every ounce of energy to try and ignore them and move on. So hard. --John Resig, creator of jQuery ( https://twitter.com/jeresig/status/425483930918060032 )

and you are not ignoring. And yes the flat fad is dead already and this "work" is just a rip off. So one can "hate" it as much as one wants.

It looks like they've cloned all of Ionic? What is going on here? http://angulargap.github.io/

Well, and they've re-licensed our content which they aren't legally allowed to do. Whatever, it's not worth my time and I shouldn't have let it get the better of me this morning.

This looks really nice, thanks for creating it. I'm looking to use it for a small redesign project this week, and I had a quick concern - when I load the sample files on my OS X 10.9.2 in Chrome, the text won't show. Once I "inspect element" in Chrome, it pops in. Strange error for sure - just me or anyone else? https://www.dropbox.com/s/kkwjt7prm5a4xuh/Screenshot%202014-...

Theres currently a bug in chrome 33/34 where web fonts won't render until you force a repaint.

This looks very nice. As a primarily backend guy I appreciate all the work people do on this stuff a lot (even if I don't use it I often refer to it for both inspiration and ideas on how to do stuff). Thanks for sharing. EDIT: For example I'm already "borrowing" the colours from the notification dialogs, they look much nicer than the stock ones :).

Same thing here, though in the moment I'm having a hard time finding U[I|X] solutions/patterns for the webapp I'm designing, which is much harder than a theme (for me). In the sense that "now, this is organized from a database point of view, how do I make users consume and interact with it?"... (Just looking at Facebook blows my mind when you start realizing how many tiny patterns they have for displaying more inform…
