Who has the best Go programs at 19x19 level? I think David Fotland is
only 2 Dan and his is one of the best. I know the old handtalk program
was written by a very strong player. How strong is Michael Reiss?
And the other top guys?
Ken Chen is 6-dan. Chen, Zhixing, the writer of HandTalk/GoeMate is
about 5-dan by European standards. Martin Müller and Robert Rehm are
5-dan. Daniel Bump and Arnoud Rutgers van der Loeff are 4-dan. David
Forland is 3-dan. Joachim Pimiskern is 2-dan. Michael Reiss is 1-kyu.
Wang, Yizao is 2-kyu. Guillaume Chaslot and Ivo Tonkes are 3-kyu.
I have heard that Bruce Wilcox learned Go so as to be able to write a
program to play it, and became 5-dan himself.
