I vote for adding both 13x13 and 19x19. As long as there is capacity on the
server, I don't see any harm in running all three common sizes at the same
time. Let the usage dictate how to proceed from there. This may provide
valuable feedback that can been incorporated into the new server Don is working
on. I think most programs are tuned to one size, either 9x9 or 19x19, but
13x13 provides an interesting intersection of different game playing strategies.
