Theoretically yes, but unfortunately Agora is not completely stable yet, so 
there is a risk that 
its database will need to be reset at some point and therefore your snippet 
might be deleted.

For the moment I'd suggest using either the patch tracker on savannah or the 
wiki instead. 

Of course it would be better to have a reliable service through Agora so if you 
can help improve it
or you know someone else who can, any contribution would be very welcome ...

This has happened in the past and I understand there is a plan to move Agora to 
a different
hosting service, so I am afraid it might happen again.
