Hi there !

How do you think is it  right time to upgrade snowball stemmers ?
We didn't change them since 2007.
    Regards,        Oleg

Probably you should ask the snowball people.  I'm not sure if they have
a formal release cycle or not, but if they think their stuff is unstable
right now for some reason, now wouldn't be the time to grab a copy.

Assuming they're okay with it, then sure.

I don't see any releases, so I just asked Martin Porter.
