The latest version is here:

does not appear to contain the word "chess".
Right, it is about go indeed. See section 5.12 Mathematics. Afterwards
beginner mistakes in estimating bounds are avoided more easily. From the
upper bound of the number of legal positions L, under superko without
passes the maximal game length L follows, then 361^L is an upper bound
for the number of possible games.

As has already been mentioned, 2x2 was studied on rec.games.go some
years earlier. The exact number of games under a typical ruleset is
still unknown though, I think.
