-## 2012-02-27 new theme based upon bootstrap
-
-Added Bootstrap code from Twitter's Bootstrap http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap
-Additional images, css changes
-Consolidated Bootstrap, Boilerplate, HTML5-Reset code
-Edited text and forms for some modules (as a CMS, Plinth's fetching of text and forms from static files needs rethinking)
-Changed menu javascript to work with Bootstrap styles
-
-## 2012-02-24 template and theme changes
-
-Added HTML5-Reset code http://html5reset.org
-Removed robots.txt (we have "noindex,nofollow" in the template meta tags, do we need this?)
-Added meta noindex,nofollow,noarchive tags for specific robots (googlebot etc.)
-Removed extraneous meta tags useful only for indexing
-Removed HTML5-Reset "_" directory.  Not sure why it's useful to add an ambiguous folder to the directory tree.
-Made sure no Google-y code wasn't included (analytics, remote copy of JQuery, etc.)
-Fixed symbolic link docs/style.css
-New favicon and iOS "web clip" button
