[Spambayes] proposed changes to hammie & co.

[Neale Pickett]

So then, Tim Stone - Four Stones Expressions <tim@fourstonesExpressions.com> is all like:

I'm currently entwined with mucking the heck out of WordInfo.  I've got
a neato scheme based on Alex's patch and comments where the WordInfo
classes still compute their own probabilities, but also keep a revision
number which is compared against a MetaInfo class.  The neato thing
here, at least from the perspective of DBDict, is that all the meta
information is now bundled up in a handy object.

Yeah, go for it.  I knew I'd wear you down ;)

Nothing, really, we just have to present a summary of all the changes
we've made, get sign-off, and then I'll merge back into head.

I'd also like to take the hedge trimmers to the options class, option
names like "hammiefilter_persistent_storage_file" are a little long,
methinks.  But that can wait.
