Maybe something to do with the IMPOSSIBLE TO MISS REQUEST TO NOT RE-PUBLISH THE ALPHA INFORMATION that people can't seem to comprehend.

Hm.. I wonder how many people will switch back to TextMate 2 from Vim/Emacs/Sublime Text?

I imagine all three are superior to TM2, especially Vim and Emacs, after you bust through the learning curve no point ever going back.

After playing with TM2 for half an hour or so, I don't think I'll be switching back from Vim. I was hoping for some split-screen action and maybe some advanced autocomplete intergration, but it doesn't seem to have either. It's looking to be a great update and improves on a lot of things in the existing version, but if I were honest, I'd have to say I wouldn't bother upgrading if it wasn't free.

That said, it's obviously an alpha release, so who knows what the future will hold.
