1st - This theme is a great start!
I stumbled upon it when I wanted to create a Drupal 7 version with HTML5 and boilerplate to my Tendu theme and looked to see if someone already created a boilerplate based theme.

If all goes well with your theme I might not start a new one but contribute to yours instead :)

And to the issue:
One of the strongest sides of h5b is modernizr - and mainly the ability to add html5shim without a need for another script and to avoid the need for IE specific CSS files.
I didn't get the rational behind removing it.

Tom.

Hey Tom, thanks for the feedback! It'd be great to have others onboard contributing to the theme, I'm still debating whether or not to put it on github...

As for Modernizr, it was removed because of the license. I'll have to take a look at the possibility of it being compatible but I'll also document it in the code and suggest it as an addon in the README.

I've updated the theme to include Modernizr with instructions in the README, i'll post a new release in the next few hours!

Great, thanks.
BTW - there is a Modernizr module, this module also requires downloading Modernizr manually (License too I guess) but it might be useful to integrate it into the theme somehow.

Also, there is a new beta of Modernizr with a built-in builder, totally awesome - http://modernizr.github.com/Modernizr/2.0-beta

Sounds good, I'll offer optional integration with Modernizr module!
