Yes, sorry about that preek. I am currently working with my provider to get the email issue resolved. Keep an eye on @vimconf and I will update everyone once it gets fixed. Thanks!

#53Earlier quoted context omitted.
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
IntelliSense knows the library, omnicompletion just autocompletes similar words in the current file.
Grandparent was correct. Vim's basic completion is "similar words in the current file" (plus some other things), but omnicomplete is an arbitrary algorithm that can get pretty fancy. For example, in Ruby, omnicomplete on 3.14.tr will include truncate, while omnicomplete on [[1, 2]].tr will include transpose.

#54As far as topics are concerned, I'd really like to see a vim plugin created from start to finish. The tutorials and docs that exist leave a lot to be desired, and this seems like a nice venue to demonstrate (and explain!) the capabilities of the vim plugin system.
While this is an excellent topic for advanced vim users, I suspect that the majority of us would benefit more from a "Beyond the basics" topic. I'm comfortable with using vim to edit files now and then, but for that role any editor will do. Now I'm willing to invest some time to learn how to harness the full power of vim. Signed up.
There is a chapter on Vim scripting in my online book, please take a look and let me know your feedback - http://www.swaroopch.com/notes/Vim_en:Scripting

#55I know this is off topic but would you mind sharing how you created a special link that can be passed to earn credit? Are there plugins/gems for something like this or was this made from scratch?
Vimconf is currently running on www.kickofflabs.com (I am a co-founder). The link sharing is a recent feature addition.
