Re: Theme switch for Roller 5.1?

[Gaurav Saini]

Hello Glen,

Thanks for adding my work in Roller. I have merged the changes you 
mentioned.


Please let me know if anything else have to be done. I recently sent a 
mail in mailing list regarding the contribution towards roller. I am 
really interested in any UI work to be done, can anyone assign me some 
of that Issues in JIRA so I can contribute.


Regards,
Gaurav

today to Gaurav to fix the search entry box.

As for Brushed Metal, it's at least 7 years old and none of our users

if you're posting text-only articles and you want tall/narrow paragraphs
that are easier to read than the wide column offered by the
source-code-friendly Basic and Rolling themes.  But anyone looking for a
narrow text column is going to want a responsive theme anyway, which
Brushed Metal can't provide.  So I think Gaurav's theme would be a good
replacement for it.  WDYT?

Theme switch for Roller 5.1?

[Glen Mazza]

Team, I'd like to bring in Gaurav's responsive (Bootstrap) theme[1] into 
trunk and have it replace the "Brushed Metal" theme.  I've plugged it 
into trunk and it looks quite nice.  Roller 5.1 should ship with at 
least one responsive theme and Gaurav's work seems to fit our needs 
pretty well.  Here's an idea of what it looks like: 
https://web-gmazza.rhcloud.com/test/  .  The "archives" and comment 
entry fields are particularly well-designed.  I put in a pull request 
earlier today to Gaurav to fix the search entry box.

Re: [VOTE] Release Roller 5.0.4 - rc2

[Greg Huber]

Depreciated here would mean not supported, hence the warning messages, on
this version of struts.
