Interesting. Perhaps because I've had a bit of experience dabbling in some pretty graphically intensive/impressive HTML5 applications this template isn't all that impressive to me and I was expecting a lot more. Needless to say, it's great people are releasing things like this and no doubt it'll get a bit more feature packed as people fork and make changes hopefully. Exciting times ahead, now where's my beer template, I'm thirsty.
My hope was that choosing to refer to it as "minimalist" would help calibrate people's expectations not to expect to much. I'd be interested in other language or naming that we could use to make that more clear.
This template will indeed become somewhat more featureful over time, but part of the intent is that highly specialized, opinionated, and therefore featureful templates should be built on top of this one (eg a template for an MMORPG). Again, thoughts on better verbiage to make this more clear would be greatly appreciated.
