thanks !
i have made that
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/gib.explore/go/last_Gnugo_W_binary.htm
i think that should be  enough (concerning GPL usages)

Maybe ! (i never could run 3.5.2)
I'm glad to learn GnuGo's NNGS rating was improving with 3.5.2 but i
remember *YOU* said you did not like Cosmic strategy even if its results
against Go++ were good .
i did'nt like it too !
It seems that 3.5.3 fuseki choice is a kind of 3.4&Cosmic mixture .

In fact i believe that even when Gnugo will score 100% against Handtalk
(which is very good to reveal Gnugo's weaknesses) , it still
has problem to win against go++ but i don' think this is a great problem.

A good planning should be (but i may be wrong):
first : make GG to win 100% vs HT (this is clearly possible i think(but i
may be wrong!!))
second : just adjust the fuseki style  tuning it against go++.(Cosmic had
demonstated that is not so difficult to do)
Then GG will  win 70% vs go++ and be rated around 4kyu vs NNGS human players
...
Since your main goal is not to beat computers but do well against human i
suppose !

Anyway ,go on with the good work !
