Validation suite doesn't seem to be working

So I tried to run the validation suite with PorterStemmer2.js and it seems to be failing to execute that file at all right now.

Oh right, it was totally in a transition phase. The code is not functional. Now I know. What a pain. I found it hard to get the motivation to revamp this thing. I tried a few times and failed. Do you need a porter2 stemmer now? If so that's some good motivation for sure. Click the star maybe?

I've found an alternate implementation which I'm using now http://code.google.com/p/urim/ but it's much more verbose. I started doing a little work on this one in my fork but haven't gotten that far.

This is wonderful. So long as it passes the dictionary provided by Mr. Porter, I'll wind down and close this project, unless there is some academic interest.
