Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2001-08-07 Severity: wishlist I intend to create a package vim-scripts.
Vim is a very capable editor. Its scripting support allow the use of plugins that enhance the functionality of it. Many people have written scripts, they are scattered all over the web; however, there's a central resource on http://vim.sf.net to start with. I want to collect some of those scripts on a purely subjective and biased basis, and turn them into a Debian package, so that users can have a nice collection without having to go searching. Tell me if you think it's superfluous. Copyright and licensing: That's a problem. The scripts are freely available on the web, but most of them don't bear any licence. No licence usually means no right to use and distribute. Is there any reason I can ignore this problem? Or should I rather contact all the authors of individual scripts? This is a request for comments. (Or a cry for help. Although I wouldn't call it that, because cries for help are better suited for debian-mentors.)
