person who provides the DNS for Vim does so in an extremely
reliable and efficient manner, so what they say goes. The issue
is that vim.org is a domain and should not be expected to work

Some browsers try adding "www." when plain "vim.org" does not
resolve to a host name, so vim.org works in some browsers.
