I don't want to start a flamewar on this issue, I'm just curious: in
which way is Vim not free-as-in-freedom software? I've read the license
and it allows even relicensing as GPLv2. In fact, the license is very
similar to the free license I use for my own projects, the Artistic
License 2.0

IMHO, Vim is free software.
