There won't be a flamewar on this issue: I'm just saying that some
distribution developers choose not to include vim by default and the
freedom is their reason.

I don't care whether vim should be include in a particular distribution
or not. Because I always compile vim from svn, which is far more useful
than distribution-specific versions.

IMO most serious vim users should compile their own vim. Only casual
users should rely on distribution-specific version.
