I will be willing to welcome players of all strengths, if that is what the strong players want.
My reason for excluding weaker players is that, last time this was discussed, at least one operator of a strong player said that he did not want to set it up and operate it and then see it win a succession of games against players five or more grades weaker. If that has changed, I will gladly relax the requirement that entrants be at least as strong as GNU Go. So, I welcome Rémi's opinion, and I hope that other operators of strong programs will tell me their opinions.
