If I discover that chi-squared is indeed better than PG's method (I'd 
have to rebuild a live database, which is understandably a pain), then I 
definitely will be, and I'll be giving the code to SpamAssassin too. I 
suspect a lot of these projects that sprang up after PG's article will 
fall by the wayside as developers realise they don't really want to 
maintain them. But that's just evolution :)
