    The responsive embeds feature looks very useful. Getting iframes and objects to scale appropriately has often been a struggle in my experience.

    Thank you for the great effort. Glad that lots of small but annoying bugs have been closed (like modal shift). Bootstrap is a big relief for those who aren't, can't or don't want to be CSS ninjas.

    Update : I dropped it in my project followed by s/bootstrap-3.1.1/bootstrap-3.2.0/g . Nothing broken. That's a delight !

    Nice list of fixed bugs. :)

    Some of them were affecting me, so I am very happy that this release fixes them.

    Bootstrap, like jQuery, was a great thing at one time. It still is a great thing to some people.

    Whenever I see default Bootstrap styles out in the wild though, I get pretty disgusted.

    Never trust a company that uses default Bootstrap styles in their production apps. It just shouts "I don't care" or "I don't know any better."

    Why do you need Bootstrap?

    You can write a grid system in less than 10 lines of code with Sass. You can also do a typographic mixin in 5 lines of code then customise it as you need. You can also have a icon web font set only for <i> tag in 5 lines of code. What else is there? Forms. You can reset the forms in another 5 lines of code then add stuff for [type=submit] and so on.

    Why do you need thousands of lines of code when you can have a pretty nice CSS framework in less than 50 lines of code? This costs you time, money and your site will take more time to render by slow browsers.
