#5How long its this charity going on? I remember that message in vim for a long time (never made me donate because of it btw. I donated to thank Bram, he did what he want with it.)
My point being that any poor condition that needs external help, and last so long, is most probable being maintained by some other factor irrelevant for the charity results, or being helped in any way by the charity ...or maybe it's just an honest huge mess that indeed that a lot of time.
any word if the money goes to the pockets of the pharma industry, which is the main place to blame for high aids treatment prices?
Most countries ignore some medical patents when they can prove excessive profits, but said country must have means of producing it themselves.

It's awesome you want to help development of the this magnificent text editor: you can help in two ways I can think on top of my mind, if you browse the www.vim.org site, I'm sure you will find more ways.
1. it's open source project: donate your development time, write documentation, develop useful scripts, anything you can really... 2. you still can donate money, regardless of helping the children in Uganda, because "donations increase Bram's motivation to keep working on Vim". That's a good cause, wouldn't you agree?
