Added Post Formats support
Allows for customization of 10 post formats using the WordPress API and CSS.
Hey Jeff, if you are still interested in this, can you do a pull request on my branch at bytefair/eulerplate? I'm trying to maintain and update this theme. Thanks.
I don't have the repo anymore, but I would be happy to pull it down and make some edits. Is there anything else you might want added to it?
well, I am looking to make some changes to bring some of the features of the very modern WordPress themes to Boilerplate. I'm only really trying to accomplish two things. One, to leave the CSS code completely alone. It should actually work like Boilerplate out of the box, just WordPressified. I may add some styles for things you can do inside the WYSIWYG post editor. I put in a few styles to handle floating images, but that's it. Two, to add some of the fancier new features of modern themes. Post types is a great example.
Themes handling custom post types and taxonomies, and other content creation functions is considered a bad practice by many. The issue being, if they change the theme, the content goes away unless the post type is replicated in a plugin. At the same time, custom post types need a theme that supports them to be useful.
I think the best way to do custom post types, is with a must use plugin. I will eventually be writing some code to create them from my framework through FTP, but this may be a bit much for a minimal starter theme like HTML5 Boilerplate.

That is a good point. I was thinking if it's in the default Wordpress install, like in Twenty Eleven, it could be included. You are probably right though, and that's why so far I've taken a conservative approach to adding anything. It's only with much gnashing of teeth that I added IDs to the page header and footer.

What we maybe could do is put the code in and leave it commented out by default. It would actually be a very Boilerplate thing to do. I'm thinking if the default theme has a feature, it would be okay to add it, if only in comments. That way if you moved from default to an Eulerplate based theme, you'd still have the features of a default install a couple deletes away.
