Hopefully you will be proved wrong by the end of January 2009.
I don't feel like i should involve anyone in this before a working prototype is
out. Your skepticism is probably statistically correct, so we'll resume this
conversation in two month. If my algorithm doesn't work indeed, i'll certainly
stop all work on go and hex altogether.
Sincerely
Denis FIDAALI.
