Greets,

Right now the codebase depends upon the CPAN modules Lingua::Stem::Snowball
and Lingua::StopWords to provide access to the Snowball stemming library and
stoplists.  We should bundle Snowball with Lucy, which is permissible since
Snowball is BSD licensed.  

Other Lucy host languages won't have access to CPAN, after all.  :)

The build will slow down some because of the extra compilation for the
stemming files.  I'm tempted to add a "semiclean" build target (or something
like that) which would leave the charmony.h config file and compiled
dependencies like Snowball intact.
