Hi,

I just received an email whether we wanna move snipmatch to the attic. No, we don't. We have big plans with it for Luna. But it's not ready yet and we think that moving it to the incubator does make much more sense for several reasons:

1. Lower entry barrier for (GSOC) students to contribute to Snipmatch
2. Easier to get committer rights which is helpful for GSOC too
3. More degrees of freedom to try out things in a less restrictive environment
4. Much easier to cut Snapshots of the current code and make it available to users
4. When a Snipmatch build fails it does not fail the whole Code Recommenders Juno and Kepler release builds

So, no worries. Snipmatch is going on - just moving :)

Best,
Marcel
