Bram is the one major bottleneck in this project for getting patches
and
new features implemented. But, ironically, he is also the anchor that
has
kept the project together on the straight and very narrow path.
Anchor disappears, ship floats away.
Everybody can publish their own repository and, judging by the amount
of
arguing and bickering about rewrites, new features, this and that
language
and the many patches that don't get integrated etc., everybody probably
will. End of VIM as we know it.
And the user will decide, which fork to use instead. As happened 20
years ago
with the many vi clones, when vim became the de facto standard. So what?
I really don't see any point in this discussion.
So I suppose if Bram died tomorrow and you were offered controlling
duties
as he currently performs them, you would not be interested in the role?
Perhaps I get hit by a bus, before I have ever the chance to take on any
other
role? Perhaps in the distant future I have no interest in developing
anymore?
Can we please focus on actual problems instead of discussing some
hypothetical
questions? Thanks.
Best,
Christian
