Re: [Computer-go] Develop a client for KGS?

I'm a little behind the time due to vacation, but I can offer a few bits. I'm pretty sure Bill is opposed to any attempt to create a third party client for KGS, and has the capacity to enforce his wishes. NNGS is pretty moribund, but I do have a working copy that I used to run on boardspace.
