More hardware would help, of course.
More data would be good. Particularly useful would be game records
(for training) and sets of whole-board positions (9x9 and 19x19).
Pattern libraries and opening libraries would be good, too, but
incorporating them into existing programs may be difficul
There seems to be something special about 9x9 go for computers, it's
very popular, perhaps because it's so much more approachable.
However I personally think it's time to start looking at bigger board
sizes seriously.If it were up to me, we would move to 11x11 on CGOS
but I fear that would
Maybe we should approach wms about using KGS. Rank and pairings could
be computed separately. Once upon a time, there was a page that
computed 9x9 bot ratings

Between 9x9 server and 13x13 server, I would go for a 13x13 server if we can
only keep one. On 9x9, there are gnugo, mogo and fuego to test against on
home pcs.

By the way, I hosted it on my own machine at home for a few weeks when
it first came up and it seems extremely fast then, but this is probably
not something I can judge fairly. Home connections like this have low
outgoing bandwidth compared to incoming bandwidth, but I doubt this is
any kind o
There are a number of important updates regarding the Computer Go
tournament next week at the US Go Congress in Portland, OR.
First, timing: due to unforeseen circumstances, we won't be able to
start the tournament (or get into the lab) until Monday, August 4. I
plan to open the lab at 9:00
I like KGS and the maturity of it compared to CGOS. However, it's a
different problem. KGS doesn't schedule games for you.
I also tried to persuade WMS to rate 9x9 bot games, but he was unwilling
to add more indexes and overhead to the database. And even if he
agreed, sometimes I want to
It would be nice to have a workshop from time to time where we could
share our skills.

the US Go Congress.
Perhaps we (or the subset of us within a given country) could just
pick an existing conference (something on machine learning or games)
and all go there...

Your message reminds me that I had not told the list yet about those

months, which will allow me to add another 1GB to CGOS allocation.

2 GB would make is much more comfortable. But I do like that it's
hosted on boardspace as boardspace already specializes in games, so I am
not particularly eager to move away from it.
It's a gift that Dave Dyer allows us to use it and it's appreciated.
Maybe some of us who use it could consi
