The "comments" section for vimtips is not very reliable (who goes
back every day to see if his tips have got a new comment added to
them?). Since vim-online scripts (unlike tips) require logging in, if
you have a comment you can email the maintainer.
A forum that generates an rss feed for new postings for tips & comments
& discussion could turn out to be useful. As the vim site is hosted by
sf.net, one (i.e. one of the vim project developers) could, for a start,
create a forum for scripts and tips and maybe allow anonymous posting --
although sf.net forums have some minor usability issues.
I think people usually write plugin authors only when the plugin stops
working. With new/unknown plugins, I assume the decision would rather be
to uninstall the plugin. An anonymous forum would probably lower the
threshold to give feedback -- if this really is what you want :-).
