[computer-go] Who knows about a quality game collection in SGF

Anders Kierulf asked me to remove the collection from the public  
repository, which I did. So no point for anyone to go there to look  
for it.

It's not that important for my project anyway and I don't want to get  
involved in some controversy concerning the legal rights to publish  
some game collection.

Apparently the cat is out of the bag and the same or similar  
collection is available at other places. But I'll leave that for the  
parties involved to sort out.

On the other hand, I think it would be really nice to have a public  
library of high-quality games. I can think of a Wiki style web-site  
with a web-interface to enter games. And make it so that anyone who  
wishes can add games to it. It should be fairly simple to make a  
system to prevent duplicate entries. 50,000 games or so is a lot of  
work for one person to enter, but with a couple of hundred of  
volunteers it's a piece of cake. Of course to make a system like that  
would be a good amount of work, but it would be worth considering...
