This was discussed in August 2010:
http://groups.google.com/group/vim_dev/browse_thread/thread/36b81acf60548c20

The person who manages the DNS for vim.org disagrees with the
proposal that vim.org should resolve as does www.vim.org so
whatever the merits, this is one of those situations where it
is not worth debating about some theoretical benefit of being
able to use vim.org without your browser deciding that it
doesn't work, so it should try www.vim.org instead.
