Is the Askbot project at this point interested in Template contributions?

I can't promise anything right now but it could be that a neutral template "spins off" during the work on the project I want to use Askbot for.

Hi Pekka, sure if you make a new skin, we'll add it to the collection.

I hate to make the answer sound complicated, but since templates are not yet "stabilized" (that is id, class names, variable and template tag usage not yet frozen) - there will be some maintenance overhead associated with custom templates.

But it will not be a huge deal - I will be alerting people on twitter and here.

@Evgeny I totally see, I know the situation well from own projects. Thanks for the detailed answer. This is good to know. Pekka (Apr 29 '10)

Have templates been stabilized yet? I've been thinking about putting together a Bootstrap-based theme...

I think we will be using bootstrap, I like it for the good implementation of control elements. Our skin have not yet stabilized to support branching into new versions. It's been long time, I know. We could probably stabilize templates page by page, then those pages could be re-styled on the level of HTML. There is no problem to re-style the css files at this time.
