Interesting. So what's the protocol here? Can I try to get the patch
to him? Or does this patch have to sit in the ether for years until
someone is willing to be the maintainer of php.vim?
I'm hoping there's some kind of fallback mechanism for when a syntax
file doesn't have a maintainer.
It's been almost 5 months since I submitted the patch.
The question is, would you take maintainership of the syntax file?
I don't follow the mailing list, which I assume is a prerequisite.
I'm happy to test patches for the php syntax hilighter if someone lets
me know about them though. Does that help?
Take care, - Jason
If the maintainer of syntax/php.vim has gone AWOL, you should send your
changes to Bram. He may review them himself and/or ask someone else to
review them and/or propose that you become the new maintainer, which
would also imply that you subscribe to the vim_dev list and possibly to
the vim_use list, and answer questions asked there about PHP syntax
highlighting. As the Scouts say: Be prepared.
If you are proposing changes but are not ready to maintain them, then
they may (depending on how Bram feels about it) have to wait until
either the previous maintainer returns, or someone else is willing to
step up as new maintainer.
