We will *never* include vim instead of nano, simple because *everybody* can use |
10 |
nano, which many people have no fscking clue how to use vim. I've been a linux |
11 |
user for almost 8 years, and I've never learned how to use vim. We also will not |
12 |
include *both* packages, because that would bloat the stages unnecessarily. |

Just because you prefer vim instead of nano doesn't mean we should use it. There |
15 |
are many aspects of the release where somebody thinks that *their* preference is |
16 |
the correct one. It usually isn't :P |
