Re: improving Vim - Kickstarter - brainstorming - goals - who wants to join?

Hi Nikolay

I've turned your suggestion into a page about order of steps to fix Vim:
http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/vim-development/fixing-vim-next-steps.html

Have a look at the (Comment ..) text, please add some samples. Code can
be added by

I've also added you as collaborator to https://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-git-wiki.
See http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/this-wiki/contributing.html

Duplicating my comments here so that items can be discussed.
(If you reply here I'll just update the comments)

Excerpts from Nikolay Pavlov's message of Mon Dec 02 08:41:43 +0100 2013:

Keep in mind that Yzis team failed on this, see
http://www.freehackers.org/VimIntegration (which was posted in this
thread earlier)

I don't get you, can you elaborate?

> - Unicode support in regular expressions.
Can you also provide a simple use case, here ?

Use case ?

> - Non-string funcrefs (i.e. inclusion of my patch (without lambda part)).
> It contains fixes for some problems.
Again, just add a section to http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/topic/in-which-way-does-vim-suck.html

> - Stripping requirement to use shell to run applications.
Again, a use case would help much understanding what you mean exactly.
