Slightly off topic, but wow - thank you for the Turkish stemmer! There have been a few attempts at this, but I'm not sure if any worked super well. For those who don't know, Turkish is agglutinative (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agglutination http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agglutination) meaning most of the meaning in words are added as suffixes to the words, so stemming is even more crucial and difficult - removing a suffix can completely change the meaning. Example: "Kitap" is "Book" but "Kitaplik" is "Bookshelf" (or more literally "Book-container").
