Hi,

We did not advertise this site earlier, because there is a possibility 
that it will get its own domain name in the future. So if you create 
links to it, beware that they may get broken.

This being said, if anybody has any of the missing data, we would 
welcome it. All the Go tournaments are listed there:
http://www.grappa.univ-lille3.fr/icga/game.php?id=12

Most of the go game records were collected from the previous ICGA sites. 
For many of those past tournaments, the game collection was extremely 
messy: missing player names, missing result, etc. I tried to do my best 
to guess who played which color and what was the result, but it was 
sometimes difficult. So I would appreciate if participants in those 
tournaments could check that their game records are correct. I would not 
be surprised at all if there were mistakes.

I hope that this web site will improve the communication of ICGA 
tournaments. The plan is to have live broadcasting of the games on the 
web, with a Chinese and a Japanese version of the site.
