Hi all,
I was looking for a stemming package that I could use in python, but could
find any easy to use ones (like perl's Text::English) so I ended up
writing an implementation of Porter's stemming algorithm in python.  I
thought that this might be useful for people doing indexing in zope, or
perhaps understood more about ZCatalog internals than I do.  

You can get it at http://wso.williams.edu/~skaplan/porter.html

I hope this may help someone using Zope (suggestions and patches are
welcome)
