Dear list, I really hope I don't hurt anyones's feeling by saying that the current vim.org website looks a little bit dated. I also happen to think that it doesn't do a very good job of explaining what vim is and how to install it. Lastly, it doesn't give you any hints on how to effectively manage your plugins with tools like pathogen and/or vundle.
I would like to change this and I was wondering if there is any sort of appetite for updating the website? I would volunteer to implement/lead this effort. In terms of inspiration I would look at the Linux kernel's website[0]. In my opinion it scores nicely in the areas of simplicity and usability. How can you know if I'm competent and trustworthy? I have been a web developer for the last 5 years and I have quite an active Github profile[1] I blog at http://leonard.io. I'm also maintaining a vim syntax file[2]. Maybe this will give you an indication of the quality of my work. Before I get ahead of myself in terms of planning I would like to gauge the community's feelings towards an undertaking like this. Thanks a lot for listening, Leonard [0] https://kernel.org [1] https://github.com/lenniboy [2] https://code.google.com/p/vim/source/browse/runtime/syntax/sshdconfig.vim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
