I'm (idly) interested in "lifting" some of the SGF / GTP stuff from C to (Guile) Scheme, and then hacking at that level to add rectangular board support. Depending on how amenable the internals are (i haven't looked closely in a number of years), maybe a side-effect could be the exposure of some modules to Scheme, too. Could be useful for testing, and other runtime experiments (switching algorithms, tuning heuristics, etc).
Does this sound interesting? What are the chances that such an effort could find its way into the GNU Go code repo proper? Just to be preempt the obvious suggestion, i'm NOT interested in hacking C (more than necessary) in GNU Go for this (rectangular board support) or any other itch.
