[computer-go] request: NNGS archive data?

[Guido Adam]

Okay.
The 2005 files say

"CoPyright[
   This game was played on the No Name Go Server
   Permission to reproduce this game is given.]"

So it is save to publish them under daogo.org.

I have just put the files on the server. There is no html-page with an 
index or links yet, so you have to use the following urls to access the 
files directly:

http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_1995.tar.gz    ( 3837697 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_1996.tar.gz    (14076151 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_1997.tar.gz    (21268288 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_1998.tar.gz    (28803038 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_1999.tar.gz    (34943710 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_2000.tar.gz    (29641075 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_2001.tar.gz    (23844383 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_2002.tar.gz    (24798963 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_2003.tar.gz    (22179801 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_2004.tar.gz    ( 6422522 Bytes)
http://www.daogo.org/download/nngs_2005.tar.gz    ( 1510413 Bytes)

The nngs archives originally used one tar-file per day. I repacked the 
games so that there is only one tar-file per year. Just to ease the 
handling...
