To interject at this point: my experience is that renaming projects is
generally more trouble than it is worth.
In particular, to rename the project on sourceforge is a BIG chunk of
work (it requires submitting a support request which can take months to
be performed, amongst other things).
There's not a trademark problem or anything here, AFAIK, so we should
only change if we feel there's a real danger of people being confused.
If we need to make a distinction, we can refer to this project as the
snowball stemmer project, which I think will be a unique reference.
Also, people are already becoming familiar with the use of the name
"Snowball" to refer to this project.
I really don't think it's worth worrying about.
