Re: [gnugo-devel] gGo is no more free software :-(

[Arend Bayer]

I don't think we should be discussing license issues of other projects
here. But as it happened I would like to say a few words.

- gGo, apart from being an excellent IGS client, is IMO the best GNU Go
  client we have. (E.g. it is the only one that can resume aborted games
  against GNU Go, a common FAQ issue about other clients. Etc.) I am really
  grateful Peter Strempel has done this. Especially as our attention
  towards UI issues is a bit limited due to focussing on improving the
  engine itself.
  Probably gGo is the best thing that happened for GNU Go's users last
  year.

- Of course we aren't exactly happy that it has become closed source for
  now. But I assume I can speak for everyone hear that we respect
  Peter's decision, whatever his reasons were.

In particular, I'd not hope that the impression remains we would be
upset about Peter now.
