#2Unfortunate that they don't mention licensing at all. (EDIT: Whoops, I'm completely wrong. Sorry. Move along, nothing to see here.) Since they use Git submodules, some licensing is inherited from packages like Command-T and vim-fugitive... but they wrote code themselves as well, so there's also that.

#3This is cool but it seems silly to have the default install method to be using "rake", I love vim but keep Ruby off most of my systems, what happened to good ol' fashion shell scripts.

#4not a cool question but ... I wonder if it will install on windows without problems

LICENSE is in root dir. It's Apache 2.0.

It won't, it's mac os x only from the looks of it, which is kinda silly.

Why is it silly? It's specific for OS X and OS X users already have ruby installed.

#10I started using vim about a year ago, by using the janus vim distribution, which was great to get me started. However, I since started again from scratch to know what's there and why. So I won't be using this at all besides for the implicit recommendations of existing plugins (like the_silver_searcher, which is really crazy fast).
Overall, this seems like a great way to get started with vim because it doesn't have too many plugins but it still has the minimum features expected from someone who used Sublime or Textmate.
edit: looking at their .vimrc, there's a lot of stuff that I'll use right away. Definitely useful, just not as a straight download/install for me.
