Good night time Aaron,
Reviewing the performance claims, I don't see data validating the 660%
speed up. Also, having looked at libdivsufsort and SACA-K, I think the
code could use some more comparisons. It does look neat though. Also,
why is this going through the bug list?
I am not a mod, so don't worry all too much about me.

Description : Native Go English Porter2 stemmer
Porter2 implements the english Porter2 stemmer. It is written
completely using finite state machines to do suffix comparison, rather
than the string-based or tree-based approaches. As a result, it is
660% faster compared to string comparison-based approach.
I intend to package this library under the auspices of debian-med for
the sake of recent ncbi-entrez-direct releases. However, if somebody
from the Go team wants to take this package over, they're certainly
welcome to it. ;-)
