There is a standard file format like PGN for Go, that uses standard go notation. It's the Ishi Press Go Format used by the original Many Faces of go, and still supported by Many Faces. You might still find files out there with a .go extension. It was invented before sgf, but the go commuinity preferred sgf, I think because the files were smaller. I think Anders supports using Korshelt notation in sgf (E4, etc, with no I). David > I'd just like to see adoption of a standard file format for go that is human readable. To me, that requires "standard" algebraic notation such as "E4". I'd definitely prefer to see an sgf-like or PGN-like variant over XML. I can't yet commoent on JSON or YAML.
