There are quite a few things to be worked on. And I'm going to Uganda for about a month, that pushes it further forward. Vim 6.3 was released over a year ago. There are patches, but many people prefer installing Vim directly, with all the updated runtime files. Therefore I'm planning a 6.4 release. This is just going to be Vim 6.3 with all the patches included and the most recent runtime files. If there is some bug that was fixed in Vim 7 but not put back into Vim 6.3, let me know and I'll see if the risk is small enough to do that now. Stability is the main goal of this release, thus I will reject anything that I am not confident about. The most recent runtime files can be found here: ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/ If you spot an outdated file there, please ask the maintainer to send me an update. Don't send requests for new features, I will ignore them. It has been a long time since I made a release, I'm first going to make Vim 6.4a beta. Mostly to verify the release building is OK. Schedule: Right now, until October 7: Maintainers send me updated runtime files Weekend of October 8/9: Vim 6.4a beta Less than a week later: Vim 6.4 --=20 MICHAEL PALIN PLAYED: 1ST SOLDIER WITH A KEEN INTEREST IN BIRDS, DENNIS, MR DUCK (A VILLAGE CARPENTER WHO IS ALMOST KEENER THAN ANYONE ELSE TO BURN WITCHES), THREE-HEADED KNIGHT, SIR GALAHAD, KING OF SWAMP CASTLE, BROTHER MAYNARD'S ROOM= ATE "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" PYTHON (MONTY) PICTURES = LTD /// Bram Moolenaar -- Bram@Moolenaar.net -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// Sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ Project leader for A-A-P -- http://www.A-A-P.org /// \\\ Buy LOTR 3 and help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF.nl/lotr.html /// ----- End forwarded message ----- --=20 Regards, Sir Raorn.
