<h1>The Vim Community</h1>
<p>
Some people say that vi users are a rabid pack of fanatical lunatics.
We prefer to think of ourselves as community of users who have found a
piece of software that perfectly meets our needs. We like to help our
fellow users whenever we can.
</p>
<h1>Mailing Lists</h1>
<p>
There are several "official" mailing lists for Vim. Please
note that to post on these lists, <strong>you must be a
member</strong> (except for vim-announce, you cannot post there).
To subscribe, send an empty message to
[list-name]-subscribe@vim.org.
</p>
<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" border="0">
<tr class='tableheader'>
<th>address</th>
<th>description</th>
</tr>
<tr class='rowodd'>
<td><a href="maillist.php#announce">vim-announce@vim.org</a></td>
<td>Announcements only: new releases and important patches</td>

<tr class='roweven'>

<td>Help on vim and vim usage</td>

<p>
Quoting Leonid Mamtchenkov: "Until now I thought only that the Vim mailing list
was very informative and fast-responding. Now I also think that it is one of
the kindest I've came across. :) Thumbs up!"
</p>
<p>
Plenty of other groups and mailing lists exist, and are described more
fully on <a href='maillist.php'>their own page</a>.
</p>
<h1>IRC Channels</h1>
<p>
If mailing lists don't provide the quick reply and razor wit you need,
you can look for Vim users on IRC at these networks:
</p>
<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" border="0">
<tr class='tableheader'>
<th>network</th>
<th>common server</th>
<th>channel</th>
<th>comment</th>
</tr>
<tr class='rowodd'>
<td>freenode</td>
<td>irc.freenode.net</td>
<td>#vim</td>
<td>very active; <a href='http://vi-improved.org/'>web page</a></td>
</tr>
<tr class='roweven'>
<td>IRCnet</td>
<td> </td>
<td>#vim</td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>
<h1>USENET Newsgroups</h1>
<p>
Vim is discussed on USENET -- what isn't? You can find Vim discussion
on comp.editors on your local NNTP server. Or look at the
<a href="http://groups.google.com/group/comp.editors">Google archive</a>.
</p>
<h1>Vimmers in the world</h1>
<p>
The location of people using (and developing) Vim can be found
<a href="http://www.frappr.com/vim">the Frappr! map</a>.
</p>
<h1>Web Pages</h1>
<p>
Vim.org might be the official vim web page, but it's hardly the only
one. There are plenty of them, listed both in
<a href='web.php'>our registry</a> and on
<a href='http://u.webring.com/hub?ring=vim'>the Vim webring</a>.
</p>
<h1>Wiki</h1>
<p>
Another wiki is at wikibooks: <a href="http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Learning_vi:Vim">learning the vi editor/Vim</a>.
</p>
<p>
A wiki specifically for the <a href="http://wiki.macvim.org/">Macintosh</a>.
</p>
<p>
The tips have been moved to the
<a href="http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Vim_Tips_Wiki">Vim Tips wiki</a>.
