Major changes

• Refactor of Former – the project is now framework agnostic, see installation details
• Frameworks names renamed from bootstrap to TwitterBootstrap, zurb to ZurbFoundation and null to Nude
• New ZurbFoundation4 framework
• The alias is now Former\Facades\Former for everyone : Laravel 3, 4 or raw PHP
• The main branch is now master (previously agnostic). It works on Laravel 3 with a composer install but the hardcoded dependencies are still available in the laravel3 branch

Additions

• You can now chain methods to actions blocks Former::actions('Hello', 'Mr Bond')->id('foo')->addClass('bar')
• You can now chain buttons to actions blocks Former::actions()->large_primary_submit('Submit')

• You can now manually open groups via Former::group('label')
• You can also create a group that contains raw content (not a field) with Former::group('label')->contents('YourContent'). This will wrap the content in a control class so that your content is aligned with the fields.
