I am working on a plan to possibly be able to run 2 boardsizes on Dave
Dyers boardspace site.   If this plan works out,  obviously 9x9 is very
popular and we will keep it.   The only questions is what should the
other board size be.   It is starting to appear than 19x19 is the second
most popular for computer go.
