Yeah, I guess it is more work for you :) For me, in what role? As a vim user on an Arch system, or as a maintainer of packages for vim plugins?
For the 2nd I would of course not mind if other provide PKGBUILDs that install plugins so that vim-scripts-mgr picks them up.
Anyway, so what don't you like about Mr. Griffin's proposal? His proposal is great, except that there is no running code :-)
I'd love to have vim go out and check for updates to plugins, similar to how firefox/thunderbird does, or have a package manager for vim, that I as a user can run to get updates or install new plugins. However, AFAIK neither exists at the moment, and I'm not the one to write either. Actually there was one somewhere. Vim scripts have standard headers

Thanks. I also found http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=642 from a link on one of the pages you pointed me to above. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
