Thats what I suggest: executed by supervising assistance, perfect
or not. I think its the only way. Expecting all the programs to
agree is not very realistic.

That's ok. Neither do I *for the moment*. There are lots of things
to be done before. I just wanted to hear the opinion of the list
about how it could be done.

Wouldn't it be much finer to focus our efforts on making
the program play better?

Sure. I don't spend much time of this. Since the best
part of our research area is that we can effectively
verify our ideas by playing a game against someone else,
having a reasonable interest in the ruleset is legitimate
and, I'm sure, we all have.

i'm not too sure what the protocol is on this, but it'd
be interesting nonetheless -- the current 'human' KGS
tournament this month is 9x9 -- anyone with a very strong
9x9 player should enter it, if it wouldn't offend anyone (i
can't imagine that it would, since money isn't involved*).
