Separate to Vim, this concept should become more popular. Real world conferences have their place, for sure, but some topics are avoided as they probably wouldn't break even, and seeing more things like this would be great.
Couple that with a mailing list and a mumble server and you'd be set, I think.
Signed up. Id like to use vim since i like the concept but it seems so damn hard to get into. The post yesterday "learn vim progressively" was interesting though. Not sure i know what it is though. I really like VS debugger and programming in C#, C++ (both with VS). So, what exactly will i give up if i switch to vim?
I recently took the plunge. I had been using e-TextEditor for everything but .NET, and VS for .NET. Now I'm using gVim for the majority of my editing for all languages I am working in. However, I still use Visual Studio with ReSharper for certain things: debugging, intellisense (only when I'm stuck; I'm trying not to rely on it much. you can also use vim plugins or create your own to let you quickly jump to MSDN and…

I might be wrong here as I'm relatively new to vim and haven't used VS, but I'm pretty sure omnicompletion is the equivalent of intellisense in vim, http://vnfiles.ign.com/ects/css-tricks/VideoCast-101.mov

But there is awesome middle road. Try visual studio vim emulation layer called VsVim - http://bit.ly/e3GsMf
It's far from being perfect, but it has most of the stuff.
I've never understood people's obsession with vim. I used it for a few months, then timed myself doing the same tasks with vim and gedit. Gedit was faster by a significant margin.
