Assets (illustrations and examples) are now retina-ready. Too bad this is for the documentation pages only and doesn't include bundled icons. :( http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/base-css.html#icons http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/base-css.html#icons

  Bootstrap was going to ditch Glyphicons (and IE7 support) with 2.2.2[1] but it looks like they're either holding off on that or they changed their mind. I recommend using Font Awesome[2] instead of Glyphicons.

    We use fontawesome as well, it makes your site look much nicer. You can also use http://retinajs.com/ http://retinajs.com/ to scale stuff up if you want.

      Even better, pack your own custom glyphs from icomoon.io.

While Bootstrap is "great" it really needs a viable competitor. There's a tons of things that could be done better. The competitor must be really nice looking by default, responsive, use Stylus/Sass not LESS, and be modular. There isn't one today, but I hope there will be one in 2013.

    Zurb is definitely the way to go. It is a great product.

    I really liked Foundation framework. It is responsive by default, now it my first choice for public facing site. Bootstrap I use mainly for for admin interface.

  And perhaps focused on the semantic web instead of presentation? A guy here turned me on to the idea, although I'm not sure I yet completely understand how it would go from the abstract to the concrete.
