So now that we've (finally) released, we can turn our minds back to being distruptive. I'm not sure what, if anything to do about the vim frontend. Looking at http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=notmuch There is apparently still some people that use it (although notice the "Vote" column is 0). On the other hand - The vim frontend is afaik the last thing depending on the legacy text output format. - The plugin seems to be only semi-functional at the moment; in a quick test I found a message that didn't display it's content, and one that displayed the content, along with "junk" from the internal representation. - There are now several alternatives for people whose only motivation to use the vim frontend was dislike of emacs (alot and notmuch-mutt). There are several alternative vim frontends floating around in (at least) ruby and python. I don't if they are better or worse functionality wise. I'm considering stopping building debian packages for notmuch-vim, since I don't see any current prospects for the package improving. I'm not sure what the equivalent thing to do upstream would be, perhaps moving it to contrib. Or, deprecating it and then removing it. What do people think? d
