Noted, thanks.

I have to RPM package gwtbootstrap3 and patternfly, so I'll just add
it in one of those RPMs. Probably the patternfly one. It'll be an
additional Source in the spec. Sound ok?
gwtbootstrap3-0.6.jar actually contains CSS/JS/fonts of Bootstrap plus
jquery-1.11.0.min.js, its NoThemeResources.gwt.xml module exposes all
of these files as public resources of the GWT application:
<public path="resource">
<include name="css/*.css"/>
<include name="js/*.js"/>
<include name="fonts/*"/>
</public>
(Note: GwtBootstrap3NoTheme inherits NoThemeResources.)
All public resources should be copied into final WAR output during
GWT application build. This means we could use jquery-1.11.0.min.js
bundled within gwtbootstrap3.
What do you think?
