Snowball, and all of the current stemming algorithms were written by

Dr Martin Porter, who also prepared the material for the Website.

The Snowball to Java codegenerator, and supporting Java libraries, were

contributed by Richard Boulton.

Dr Andrew Macfarlane, of City University, London, gave much

initial encouragement and proofreading

assistance.

<p>

The website was established by Richard Boulton, who is still in charge of its

administration.

<p>

Linguistic assistance for Russian, German and Dutch has been provided by

<a href="http://www.patrickmiles.co.uk/">Patrick Miles</a>

(of the

Patrick Miles Translation Agency, Cambridge, UK). Pat is a distinguished

translator, whose English versions of Chekhov have appeared on the London

stage.

Various emailers have helped improve the stemmers with their many suggestions

and comments. We must especially mention Andrei Aksyonoff and

Oleg Bartunov (Russian), Steve Tolkin and Wendy Reetz (English), and Fred Brault (French).

Blake Madden found a number of elusive errors in the stemmer descriptions.
