Bug#107915: ITP: vim-scripts -- plugins for vim, adding bells and whistles
Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2001-08-07
Severity: wishlist
I intend to create a package vim-scripts.
Vim is a very capable editor. Its scripting support allow the use of
plugins that enhance the functionality of it. Many people have written
scripts, they are scattered all over the web; however, there's a central
resource on http://vim.sf.net to start with.
I want to collect some of those scripts on a purely subjective and
biased basis, and turn them into a Debian package, so that users can
have a nice collection without having to go searching. Tell me if you
think it's superfluous.
Copyright and licensing: That's a problem. The scripts are freely
available on the web, but most of them don't bear any licence. No
licence usually means no right to use and distribute. Is there any
reason I can ignore this problem? Or should I rather contact all the
authors of individual scripts?
This is a request for comments. (Or a cry for help. Although I wouldn't
call it that, because cries for help are better suited for debian-mentors.)
Bye,
Mike
