I imagine that in this case the consensus is going to be first: - Move a minimum of the core functions of fuzzystrmatch and rename them (str_distance?) - Do not dump fuzzystrmatch and have the levenshtein call those functions In any case levenshtein code needs a careful refactoring and some additional thoughts first before the hint code is touched.
