Hello Glen,
Thanks a lot. Just the spelling of the name is "gaurav". If you can
correct it :)
Thanks
Gaurav

Yeah, "guarav" is an awesome name for a theme. :) Added in:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ROLLER/Roller+Wiki (at the
bottom). I had it link to your README page
(https://github.com/gauravsaini03/roller-theme/blob/master/README.md)
so you can put a full discussion of it there.

Hello Glen,
Thanks a lot for looking into this, I was waiting for some responses
for improvements. The icons you mentioned are already being used in
one of the themes of roller "fauxcoly" that is why I used them in my
theme also. I will rename the name of the theme to "gaurav" as you
are right the other themes can be responsive in future.
Also, I will commit some more changes, as some minor issues I found
during testing of the theme again and again. Also, that will be good
for now that if you can add a link to the Roller Wiki and when the
theme usage become increases we can add this to roller anytime in
future.
Please give me 1-2 days more for final review of the theme, then you
can test it. As I don't want to waste your time if you find any minor
issues in it.
Thanks
Gaurav

I don't think we can distribute these icons unfortunately:
https://github.com/gauravsaini03/roller-theme/tree/master/icons, as
they aren't Apache licensable. Probably best to keep your theme
separate, and just have us add a link to it on the Roller Wiki. I
also don't like its name "Responsive", as that's subjective and
makes it difficult for us to include other "responsive" themes, as
well as implies that the other's aren't responsive (if they aren't,
they may be someday improved.) Apache CXF made that mistake when it
named one of its frontend, should-be-deprecated, options "Simple",
implying that the other frontend options aren't simple,
well-designed, shouldn't be used, etc. Calling your theme "gaurav"
would probably be much better--just don't give it a name that makes
the others look bad.
Once a theme gets heavy usage then it may be a candidate for
inclusion in Roller trunk, but right now most of our themes are kept
in the Roller-themes project, external to the project. Roller is 10
years old, if we included everybody's themes in the main
distribution (not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings by saying any
particular theme isn't all that good) we'd have 47 themes to juggle,
most of which would be donated and then ignored, a maintenance
nightmare. If your theme is good and people like it, they'll keep
going to your blog or your GitHub instance to get it--what's not to
like?
If you'd like to submit patches towards becoming a committer, please
check our JIRA for open issues. In the meantime, I'll try to look
at your theme (it's probably quite nice), I just haven't had the
chance yet.
Regards,
Glen

Did any one get time to look into the theme ? I want some input for

Hello,
I have designed a new responsive roller theme using bootstrap.
The advantage of responsiveness is that we can have same theme
compatible on different devices and screens.
Link- https://github.com/gauravsaini03/roller-theme
I want some reviews from the community to improve this theme, so
we can add this to next revision of roller. I have tested this
theme with Roller 5.1-SNAPSHOT and its working perfectly fine.
Although I am still working on it, to add some more widgets in
the Sidebar.
One issue while designing the page for archive is that all the
html comes from Java code (BigWeblogCalendarModel.java), so their
are less we can do to this. We can improve the archive section,
with some innovative way as in calender theme we have limitation
that we cant see the blogs of previous year. There must be some
tree like structure of the archive section.
What you say ?
Thanks
Gaurav
