Vim 7.4

In a somewhat lighthearted announcement on vim_announce, Bram Moolenaar announced Vim 7.4:

We are now at patch level 7.3.931. In a few weeks we would reach 999. I don’t want to find out what happens if we go over that, so it’s time for Vim 7.4!

Bram’s post addresses the likelihood of implementing the top 5 voted features. Voting for Vim features requires sponsoring Vim development.

Vim 7.4 is exciting, but if you’re interested in the underlying current of patches that are regularly contributed, take a look at vim_dev. You’ll see a flood of activity in response to the Python integration comment in the 7.4 announcement.
