Dear [web] admins, There is no A record for the domain name vim.org. That is, this link shouldn't work:
http://vim.org/ Some browsers have a hack, where upon getting a failed DNS response, will try adding "www." to the beginning, but some won't. And some of us use a DNS resolver (like opendns) that brings us to a search page for things with no A record. It is extremely rare for a site not to work without (the admitedly redundant) "www." prefix. Now I'll admit, that people who type domain names tend to be more technical, and that people will mostly be able to find your site anyway, but it is irritating, needlessly wastes people's time, and makes you look bad. More than once, I've typed "vim.org" in the address bar, gotten an error page, then went to google to find your site. Please make http://vim.org/ work, either my redirecting to http://www.vim.org/ or as an alternate address. Thank you, - Jason -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
