Hi Zvezdan,

That's great.  Get it submitted.  The maintainer responded very
quickly to me and was happy to fix issues.

The error I pointed out was recent, and far more egregious than those
you listed.  With it fixed, the python syntax file that comes with vim
works "well enough" for me.

Thanks,
Matt
