I'm in favor of publishing the package in the name of LDC (good 
to send password(s) to Kai and David, I think).
I'm also in favor of adding the ldc.snap package to LDC's github, 
so that it is easier for people to contribute. (contributing 
through PRs means making your own fork, and then we end up with a 
bunch of forks and no clear "main" trunk)
