Sorry Charles, but in this case Tony's definitely being a troll, and a smug one 
at that. I felt exactly the same way as Charles, but I take a hard line on 
*not* feeding trolls. Tony may indeed by a nice guy, but I wouldn't be able to 
tell that from his original post in this thread.

Having said that, let's please agree that MacVim on the Mac App Store would be 
a Terrible Idea ™, and if Bjorn doesn't want to pay $99 for a code signing key 
from Apple, it's not at all difficult to override Mountain Lion's Gatekeeper 
settings on a app-by-app basis for MacVim.
