Hello, Notmuchers!

What is the status of the Vim client?  The last commit to
vim/notmuch.vim was over a year and a half ago (2015-01-23).

I'm also aware of two Vim clients on GitHub:

* https://github.com/felipec/notmuch-vim (last commit: 2014-05-22)

* https://github.com/imain/notmuch-vim (last commit: 2015-08-24)

So, are the clients really stable, or are they rotting because nobody
uses them?  My hope is the former, but I suspect the latter.  Are most
of the Vim people just using Mutt or NeoMutt?

Thanks!

Lewis
