Hallo Marc, thanks for your effort and your extra private mail. I do agree very much with you, that the current state of plugins in VIM is horrible at least, but I don't think that your proposed solution is the right one.
1. Distributions have their own package management system and their way of shipping vim plugins[1]. And I prefer very much to use the package management system of my distribution for updating and dependency management. 2. Keep thinks independent! I really dislike the idea of hawing one big thing containing many plugins. It's like in software programming: Have many small, independent, solid, interchangeable blocks to build great systems. Sorry for the delay of my response and that I don't have the time to investigate your proposal further, but the above two points are absolute no gos for me. As you asked me to join your effort, I ask you to join mine to refresh the vim.org site! :-) [1] see: http://pkg-vim.alioth.debian.org/vim-policy.html/ Best regards, -- Thomas Koch, Software Developer http://www.koch.ro Young Media Concepts GmbH Sonnenstr. 4 CH-8280 Kreuzlingen Switzerland Tel +41 (0)71 / 508 24 86 Fax +41 (0)71 / 560 53 89 Mobile +49 (0)170 / 753 89 16 Web www.ymc.ch --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
