[Owncloud] About Bootstrap and ownCloud

Perhaps I am unable to clearly tell you why we need to go with something like bootstrap.

I never said we should go with a full bootstrap, although I do think a lot of bootstraps JS _could_ work better than the current implementation in ownCloud (no offense). 
But, you should note that this is very likely to be a personal taste.

Never the less, I don't think and never said a full Bootstrap-implementation will make things better or bring us more.

But, picking the most desirable elements of Bootstrap, and adapt it to ownCloud will make things more consistent. Currently the UI is good, but could be improved.

I'm not going to discuss all the other things here, because I think most of them are personal tastes and - in the end - needs to be inside a proper theme, which could fully override and unset the current look of ownCloud.

Cool.. Sounds KISS.
Any idea on how to keep things this simple? Do want to have some default regions which get their content pushed from ownCloud and it's apps?

Kind regards,


Stefan
