I played on that temporary 7x7 server and I think the better programs
came close at being almost unbeatable on 7x7 white and 9.5 komi
especially if one uses the known opening library. So it might quickly
get boring for most better programs.
Although losses with white might reveal some serious bugs if one knows
the program should win for sure.

I don't remember ever hearing about it. I'd use it for faster testing.

7x7 is interesting to me for a few reasons:
• It was "solved" by some dans a while back. This gives a perfect
fuseki database and measurably correct and incorrect evaluations
• 7x7 < 64, so bitboards could be extremely effective.
