vim is an available package.  If you can't find it in any of the views
via 'setup.exe', please try a different mirror.  Be assured it is there.
If you're curious, you can find a list of all available packages at
<www.cygwin.com/packages>.  This is essentially the same list that
'setup.exe' will show you with in the "All" view.  If, after thorough
effort, you still can't find what you're looking for, please read and
follow the problem reporting guidelines found at the link below before
posting a follow-up message to this list.  The information that you
provide in the report will help bootstrap the resolution of your issue
as opposed to getting stuck in a "can't find it; it's there" loop of
messages.
