This would not be trivial. MFG uses MFG knowledge to make MCTS smarter. I do doubt that this is simple. I think it took him about six months. In collaborated effort this could easily take quite bit longer. Also since details of how are not known it would mean that several people try different approaches to solve this and only after a a while a plan can be formulated. Very interesting and very challenging task.
Sure this will have to be done one day if Gnu is to be kept as the strongest open source go-engine.
