Touch icons for normal and retina resolution with iOS 7 icon sizes for
iPhone and iPad, meta tags to enable iOS full screen mode, title and
translucent status bar.

PNG touch icons were optimized via ImageOptim.

This pull request also depends on the build script adjustment by Sebastian
because the PNG touch images are referenced in the meta tags and need
to be suffixed with hash string.

We only need one of them and if properly named there’s also no need to reference them in markup: h5bp/html5-boilerplate#1367.

So we are ignoring Android?

I agree on one touch file only but I don't see the need of removing the link reference if Android 2.1+ depends on it.

See H5BP doc: https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/blob/master/doc/extend.md#apple-touch-icons

Sadly, the no-HTML approach doesn’t work on the native Android browser (tested in 2.3 Gingerbread, 3 Honeycomb, 4.1 Jelly Bean), although I’ve had reports saying it does work in and 4.2 Jelly Bean’s default browser. I haven’t been able to test BlackBerry OS6 yet.

I think we are good with Chrome on Android. There are not that many people using this website as an app anyway.
