News	Vim 7.2.013 is the current version

Vim 7.2

[2008-08-09] After fifteen months of work: a brand new Vim release! This is a stable version. There are many bug fixes and updated runtime files. The only new feature worth mentioning is support for floating point. Upgrading from a previous version is highly recommended: a few crashing bugs and several security issues were fixed. For the details see the announcement. Or go directly to the download page. (Bram Moolenaar)

Yet another beta release: Vim 7.2c available

[2008-08-07] There were too many changes since 7.2b was released to jump to the 7.2 release. So this is another beta test round. Hopefully all the important issues were fixed now. Most of them were in the runtime files. Give it a try and report any problems you find. More information in the announcement. (Bram Moolenaar)
