Perl interface to Snowball stemmers is written by Teodor Sigaev
(teodor@stack.net) in framework of our full text search engine OpenFTS
(openfts.sourceforge.net). I just inspire him and help in testing and
documentations. So, please, credit to Teodor.
We're looking for official reference to this package, because it's our
opinion the module should be developed in framework of Snowball project
(and it's really an interface, not a perl implementation of a stemmer).
We need an URL, so our users could download the module.
