You have fixed it two times and it is spammed again. I just wanted to correct it before finally adding my relativenumber patch, but it didn't work, see below. > It's hard to monitor the page.

When moving the patches list to the wiki, I think we should just add a page with a link to it on a new subsection below "Download" on vim.org and kick the Google groups page. > It took the spammers three weeks to notice that we are open for business, but > now > someone has noticed, I expect we'll see this more regularly.

Until here it was as described. > - Click "Make this version the current version". There was no such button or link available. Only an "edit this page" button. I clicked it and got to the edit page. I saved without verifying the links. This method didn't work, the latest page was the current again. So where was the correct button/link? I used Firefox, should work I think. I had created an account at Google (what a pain!) just for this entry. Markus --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
