I now tried it again and it still works. Let's take this off-list. Can we connect around 14:00 EST so I can watch the log files while you are trying to do it?

Anyway, I've found that the problem is the upload size limit, which my file, weighing at >500KB, exceeds. Somehow, yesterday I've missed the "Request Entity Too Large" error at the top of the page. Removing some assets from the plugin has made the upload go through. I will consider a different way of distributing the assets: in fact, I don't like such large plugins myself.

Licensing question: compatibility between Vim license and GPL
Can code released under Vim license include third-party code released under GPLv2 or GPLv3? I have read that Vim license is "GPL-compatible", but it is not clear to me which way such compatibility works. Thanks for providing legal advice for free ;) Life -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.

I now tried it again and it still > works. I have a cron job that checks for new and changed scripts by comparing certain sections of the scripts page to the previously downloaded page. I was concerned that changes to the site might break that cron job, but I am happy to report that it still works. Regards, Gary -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.

A few minor changes have been made since he checked it, but that should not make a difference. - If you link Vim with a library that goes under the GNU GPL, this limits further distribution to the GNU GPL. Also when you didn't actually change anything in Vim. - Once a change is included that goes under the GNU GPL, this forces all further changes to also be made under the GNU GPL or a compatible license. - If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you can include your name and contact information with the "--with-modified-by" configure argument or the MODIFIED_BY define.
