+@section Renaming a snippet
+
+Due to the potential duality of snippets (i.e. they may exist both
+in the LSR database, and in @code{Documentation/snippets/new/}),

+Send an email LSR editor, requesting the renaming.

+@item
+The LSR editor does the renaming (or debates the topic with you),
+then warns the LSR-to-git person (wanted: better title) about the
+renaming.

+@item
+LSR-to-git person does his normal job, but then also renames any
+copies of the snippets in @code{Documentation/snippets/new/}, and
+any instances of the snippet name in the documentation.
+
+@code{git grep} is highly recommended for this task.
