[新闻]VIM7 beta发布，作者Bram将到Google工作

[bold]VIM7 beta发布以及VIM的作者Bram Moolenaar将会到google工作[/bold]

今天上午收到Bram的邮件，公布了两个消息，第一个就是VIM7beta发布(难怪我昨天晚上无法连上vim的cvs服务器)。
另外一个消息就是Bram接受了google的offer，不再靠捐助生活了，当然大家还可以继续捐赠，但是Bram会把捐赠的金钱全部转交给救助 uganda（乌干达）的儿童们。另外一个稍微不好的消息是由于Bram有了自己的全职工作所以就没有太多的时间在vim上了，以前是150％的时间都在 vim上。

恭喜Bram，恭喜vim，只有作者在没有后顾之忧的情况下，项目才会很好的发展。

谢谢google。google现在已经笼络了很多开源世界的大牛，比如python的老大，现在的Bram。

Vim sponsorship changes

The past few years many people have sponsored my work on Vim. Now
version 7 is nearing completion, beta testing will start soon, very
soon. A big thanks to all who supported me! I would not have been able
to do this without your help.

But things are going to change. I have accepted a job offer and will go
back to a full time job in a few months. To avoid speculation and
rumours: I am going to work for Google in Zurich. Fortunately I can
spend part of my time on Vim. But it will obviously be less than the
past few years when I was working 150% of my time on Vim.

I will no longer need sponsorship to survive. Therefore, starting the
end of March, all money given for Vim sponsorship and registration will
go to the project in Kibaale, Uganda. And no, this is not an April
fools joke.

The voting will continue as before. And seeing people give money will
motivate me to keep working on Vim. The children need the help much
more than me anyway. Thus please keep sending money!

CVS上搞来一份，编译了一把

tab页，spell检查（不过没有中文字库/规则），候选输入列表（有点华而不实，估计要好好调教才能有大用场）……
