I'm new to the list, and I'm sure that this has been hashed, rehashed, and dragged up by every new member. What is the plan for it? Anything new besides what's on the blog?

Thanks,

-Josh

Here's a good query such a new member could use to catch up on the
prior discussions ;-)

Enjoy!

There are plans. Work is being done. It will be ready when it's ready.

We wait.
We don't discuss the subject.
We enjoy and use what we've got which is extremely good.

Josh, 
Yes, this issue has been beaten to death. Alan is trying to do a bottom-up rewrite fixing everything that he didn't like about the TM1. See Wired magazine's recent article on some selected case studies of complete software rewrites like the video game duke nukem. It is likely that TM2 rewrite will be difficult and possible that it will not ever surface. TM1 is good. Learn how to use it, rather than wondering when TM2 is going to appear. If the force is with Alan, and he can stay focused on this project, he will turn out something great like TM1. But no one likes people poking them with a stick while saying hurry up and finish your creation. It is Alan's prerogative to work independently, quietly, even isolated from the world. Let's leave him alone.

Tim-

Which is fine with me, I just wanted to make sure I was up to speed.

TM1 works great for everything I'm doing. There are a couple things I would love to see in TM2 but that's not applicable. 

Thanks,

-Josh

Good summary. :)

The magnitude of a problem does not affect its ownership.

I think the only thing I am not completely satisfied is TM1 takes much
more memory than vim.

Perfect.

Can someone please write an auto-responder that sends this out the second any string like 'TM2' is sent to the list?

I would need TM2 to write such an advanced piece of technology.

Are you comparing TextMate to stock curses based command line Vim?
Because if you are, we're in apples and oranges country :)

BTW Vim 7.3 was released yesterday. Incremental updates have their
advantages, I think.

TextMate has frequent incremental updates as well, Allan just doesn't
change the version number particularly often.
