I've already told Graham I'm happy to maintain it from an authoriser point 
of view.  The issue with that, though, is - "what is the authoriser's job"?

I typically check the speeling and grammer, correct indentation and try to 
see whether it makes sense to add to the LSR.  However, if it doesn't, 
there's no avenue to contact the author to discuss it.  Correcting the 
indentation can be a pain, too.  Oh - and updates - users can't edit old 
snippets, and so when they're updated the best approach is to copy the new 
code into the old snippet and delete the old one.  This takes time too.

My suggestion would be: unless the snippet is tagged "docs" abandon the 
above and blind authorise if it compiles.  How does this sound?
