I'm not sure I agree with this. LSR is a place to put snippets that some people think are useful, without the filtering of any "expert". And it seems to have a reasonable search feature. But I also think that LSR is a lot of overhead. So if Phil is willing to take it over, whatever he wants to do is fine with me.
