+  of plugins/tools that perform arbitrary manipulation in any language that
+  supports msgpack.
+- Binary serialization format allows efficient/safe storage of arbitrary data.
+- Multiple Neovim instances will be able to share data in real time:


This was never a goal of ShaDa. ShaDa provides only safe and extendable way of joining data from multiple NeoVim instances at their exit (or when explicitly calling :\*shada functions), so that data will not be lost because one of the instances exited too early and without using :rviminfo before.

Ok, I will fix it

Neoterm

Neoterm is a plugin for easily running tests in a terminal window. It was written by @kassio and supports the following test libraries:

rspec
cucumber
minitest
go-lang test
node

that last one is actually nose as in the python nosetests runner (unfortunately it's not node 😢)

👍 just a small typo 😄

tarruda · 2015-09-26T11:33:32Z

I've updated with the suggested fixes. Adding @Shougo @junegunn @benekastah @kassio to review the information about their plugins

+interface. @Shougo is the sith lord of Vim plugins, here's a list containing
+some of his previous work:
+
+- [neocomplcache][neocomplcache]


I think neocomplete should be listed.

benekastah · 2015-09-26T15:23:32Z

@tarruda LG. Thanks for the shout out!

+The 0.1 release is basically just a tag that users looking to compile Neovim in
+a version that has a minimum level of stability, but future releases may also
+contain precompiled binaries and even installers(when Windows is officially
+supported)


We could add some hints for packagers here.. maybe I'll send a PR once neovim/neovim#3318 is done.

jdavis · 2015-09-29T15:25:31Z

Let me know if you need any assistance, @tarruda 😄

Let me know if you need any assistance, @tarruda 😄

Thanks @jdavis

I don't need help with anything specific, but feel free to make any improvements/corrections 😄

I'm also waiting for @justinmk, I think he wants to add some things too

+    - Assumes no state stored between data pieces inside the file, which makes
+      such tools simpler and allows such manipulations as “to concatenate two
+      ShaDa files from different NeoVim instances simply use `cat 1.shada
+      2.shada > joined.shada`, NeoVim will handle this properly when reading”;


Now most points have dots. But not this and the previous one.

tarruda · 2015-10-27T12:13:23Z

Updated to reflect latest changes and rebased

+### jemalloc
+
+[jemalloc][jemalloc], a high performance general purpose memory allocator, is
+now used by default. Since Neovim makes heavy use of dynamic queues (see above)


If I'm reading neovim/neovim#3515 correctly, then this is no longer true.

For some reason I thought that PR only added an option for turning jemalloc off without touching the default. I will fix it.

+[homebrew-formula]: https://github.com/neovim/homebrew-neovim
+[archlinux-pkgbuild]: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/neovim


Neovim has been added to the Arch Linux repos, so this link can be changed to https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=neovim

Great, but isn't it useful to leave a pkgbuild script for compiling from git? Some users like to have the latest commit.

fwalch · 2015-11-04T12:59:14Z

@tarruda The Git pkgbuild is still in AUR for users to compile themselves, but the release is now in an "official" binary repo

Shougo · 2015-11-21T04:00:00Z

I have created the deoplete slide.
It may be useful for the newsletter.
