Hi,
I decided to try Vimoutliner (www.vimoutliner.org) but it seems the
website is no more accessible. In the Vim site there is a vimoutliner
too, but I think they are different and I wanted to try the first one.

Do you know if there's another link for the last version or if the
site is going to back online soon?

Thanks.

I would say the domain got hijacked:

Best you can do for now is to look at
http://web.archive.org/web/20070627093110/http://www.vimoutliner.org/

Other than that, grab the source from your distro's repo. For example,
go to
packages.debian.org/vimoutliner

Thanks, I didn't think about source.

I just asked on the vimoutliner mailing list to see if anybody knows what's
going on with the site.

You can find an older version from the project's original site:
http://www.troubleshooters.com/projects/vimoutliner/

(And yes, the The Vim Outliner (TVO) script is a different project than the one
at vimoutliner.org)

It looks like they're working on it:
http://lists.vimoutliner.org/pipermail/vimoutliner/2008-November/002391.html
That message is from today, Thanksgiving, and if you don't want to read
it the maintainer of that website accidentally let it expire because the
notice went to his spam folder. Join the list and suggest a new domain
name! Good times.

Vim Outliner will be back online soon. We still control the domain. It
looks like it may be a routing issue. It should be back online tomorrow.
