I have pushed the vim changes, so we'll have a short freeze extension
for 48h.  We will release on May 6, unless a bug that causes data loss
is revealed in the interim.

 What feature?

In Emacs MUA, when one presses ENTER (or clicks mouse) on top of
text containing id:message-id the client opens that particular message.

 What about the vim changes?

 http://mid.gmane.org/1398289784-18203-1-git-send-email-felipe.contre...@gmail.com

I was going to review these after 0.18 release as the freeze was announced
to be Apri 21th(*) and these patches in question was sent April 24th, without
any request to consider these for 0.18...

(*) This freeze was announced April 14th (see id:8761mcxjhc.fsf@zancas.localnet
or http://mid.gmane.org/8761mcxjhc.fsf@zancas.localnet )

In general these patches:

id:1398289784-18203-2-git-send-email-felipe.contre...@gmail.com
id:1398289784-18203-3-git-send-email-felipe.contre...@gmail.com
id:1398289784-18203-4-git-send-email-felipe.contre...@gmail.com

has something lacking in the commit messages; none of these indicate that
these are vim patches in the subject line.  For 1/3 I'd have liked to see
some potentially understandable explanation why the change was done instead
of Seems it never really worked. -- the change looks a bit strange
(probably due to only the context seen).  Commit message for 2/3 might be
tolerable if it were prefixed with vim: -- and the same applies to 3/3
(in 3/3 I don't understand the change and I don't use vim so I don't know
how to test so It would be nice to get someone else (or two) to report
their experience with these patches applied in their notmuch-vim environment)

Also NEWS for these changes are missing.

I personally don't see these patches being important enough to hinder
0.18 release timeline -- these patches should just have come earlier...
... but if you had a good case, fix these things (quickly!) and had
strong backing from some other notmuch-vim users I could see a small
chance of these being part of the next release...

PS: does vim frontend lack id:message-id feature -- the above http link
to gmane was just useless to me, which meant I had to use extra steps
to reach the emails (which sometimes if not often leads me just to drop
the issue there...). If it is lacking and SomeOne(™) proposes id:msgid
handling to notmuch-wim I promise to review that right away :D

Agh, I ported them from my standalone repo and forgot to do that.

 Also NEWS for these changes are missing.

Shouldn't the NEWS be written by the maintainers? In fact, aren't they
the ones that decide if something is worth mentioning in the NEWS or
not?

Well, if your mails had ever been rejected from vger.kernel.org because
of the format you might see that.

Yes.

All right.

Hi Felipe;

I guess for the Vim/ruby stuff you're best positioned to judge what is
important.  We run a kind of pyramid scheme: people generally submit
short summaries of their own user visible changes; this is the first
release that I've written a short summary of that.
