Welcome to the site, pandasthumb. 
Snuff (the stuff you stick up your nose) is certainly sometimes made of tobacco. But the title 'Snuff' is somewhat ambiguous I think and we'll have to wait and see what Terry does with it.
It could mean 'to extinguish', 'to murder' or maybe 'Up to snuff' as in good health.

Hi, gentles all;
If the collaboration is not due out until 2012 (has anybody read any of stephen baxter's works - not a name that was familiar with me until the Con this year) and the section of Snuff that Rob read (every bit as well as TP would have done!) was at least the second draft.....
DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHEN SNUFF IS COMING OUT?

I haven't read anything by Baxter, but according to his entry on Fantastic Fiction, he's very prolific.
I have no idea about a release date for Snuff (assuming it keeps that title) these things take time.

Everybody seems to be under the impression this is a Watch book but with the shift in the series from all the members of the Watch to Vimes and his pals it seems entirely possible, with Vimes going on holiday at some point in the book, that it'll be entirely about Vimes and we'll only learn what's going on with other Watchmen when Vimes thinks about them
Seeing as Angua got promoted to Captain in "I Shall Wear Midnight" they now have 3 people capable of running the show so there's little chance of another 5th Elephant occurring. In addition, I strongly believe that given the Watch when created had 5 Captain spots [The New Discworld Companion] Cheery, a troll (most likely Detritius) and a member of some other species [Dorfl perhaps] will also be Captains
As for the meaning of Snuff I think in this case it's referring to the Troll drug rather than snuff films or tobacco
