I've tried most vim outliners in spring. And I doubt it'll be a hard
sell. Most of them were dead or simply not comparable
to org's easy and intuitive way of outlining. 

For example, TVO -- The Vim Outliner [1] -- , which is most often referenced
as the standard and most powerfull vim outliner plugin, is basically
dead. Last release happened in 2006. 

Regards,
  Jean-Marie
