You're right, my reply was sloppy (it seems I'm too much used to
Japanese rules). Also I should have read GCP's email more carefully; I
did not realize that his program, even with a large tree, would not be
able to recognize the seki.  I knew of course that the original Mogo
playouts had this problem, but I thought all strong programs had
solved it by now...
