I want to propose a "gnugo-wiki", which would cover topics about gnugo AND computer-go programming in general.
This would give questions that appear from time to time (and ongoing discussions, where the ultimate answer has not yet been found -) a more permanent home. (just like a FAQ, but people can add their opinions)
Questions like:
"For game-tree-search, should i update the board state and data structures, or copy it, or both?"
"How do i calculate hashes the best way? etc"
(what programming language should i use... :-)
(and lots of other implementation details...) (how do i define goals; how do i find patterns)
-- I think the more experienced gnugo-programmers would have a lot to say to these questions.
-----2 more things:
* the sensei's wiki also has a bit about "Computer Go Programming", but imho it is not the absolutely correct place for more detailed implementation- discussions etc...
* there exists the "computer-go-list" and the "gnugo-list" --;
i think a "gnugo-wiki" would be more appropriate, as this would automatically
also cover the more general questions (so it would automatically also be a "computer-go-wiki", but the other way around this would not be the case)
However, if we want a wiki, i don't neither have the server nor do i know how to set up one, so somebody else would have to do that (same infrastructure as senseis, or
an earlier version of that wiki would be a possibility; even a wiki without go diagrams
would be useful).
If it starts small and would grow slowly in the beginning, it would still be a nice thing, imho. It should also not replace one of the gnugo/computer-go-mailing-lists.
