This page is to discuss, and plan an eventual transition to using Bootstrap in Tiki. As there is a general consensus we should move in the general Bootstrap direction (and be able to use Bootstrap themes), the remaining questions are no longer "if" but more "how" and "when"
Questions
Where will we coordinate work?
I think on themes.tiki.org
Bootstrap 2 and later 3, or directly to Bootstrap 3?
There are several non backward-compatible changes
What about LTS handling?
Option 1: start revamp after Tiki12 LTS
Option 2: start after 11.0 and try to finish for Tiki12
If Tiki12 isn't stable enough for a release on schedule, either
Do we go for a clean break / "burn all bridges" approach and force major changes on all legacy themes? or do we make an effort to try to make old themes still work?
Arguments for clean break
End result will be simpler code
End result will be closer to what people already know (people that use Bootstrap that is)
Arguments for legacy support
Makes it easier for heavily customized themes to upgrade
Things to watch out for
Pre-requisites
Revamp menu system
In general
This is a lot of work
In version 3.0
No set release date, but probably sometime in 2013
