_______________________________________________________________________

I apologise for the short notice given. I also apologise for not yet having written a report on last week's slow bot tournament. I have been away from home for the last few days (helping with a real-life go tournament). I am also handicapped by having recently "upgraded" to Windows 7, which caused most of my software to stop working.
