Sounds great, and thank you for giving me more context on Snowball in general. I hope I'm not raising some we've-been-through-that-before issue: is there any chance we could move the Snowball repository to Git? And possibly GitHub? Git makes it so much easier to collaborate. I can always maintain an unofficial mirror on Git, but, well, it's not the same. Thank you again!
