Yes that was also my thought, just remember we have 960px, so about
300px per column, not so much.
I like the idea, and also the fp.o/product (we can use different
colors per site then, at least on the header).

I want to be provocative here: is fedmag ready to handle this?
I'm not positive about planet feeds, the content would not be controllable.

Yeah, that would be nice, we could elaborat an idea and pass this to
marketing for the content.

They should remain as they are now.

Hah, that would be a huge task, rewriting it all. Do we have manpower
to do so? I never used bootstrap but it looks nice.
On the other hand, if we can improve fp.o pages we should work on them
now, unless we want to work on them twice (now and when merging in the
future to something else like bootstrap).
I think we can do this if we work only on fp.o. I still don't get if
we will ship spins as separate images, in that case we could
concentrate the work on fp.o and shut down definitely spins.fp.o. If
we are going to ship some of them as before, we should integrate them
in fp.o and abandone spins.fp.o in any case.

> Thoughts?

Yes, thank you for your ideas ;)
As I said, it's the best to get all the ideas we have, and slowly move
forward while we are getting updates from the WG groups.
