Hello,
I have renamed my xeniz in zenix and it is now available under GPL licence
for inclusion in Richard server (or other).
It contain a help file (maybe usefull for documenting the rules one the web
site)
and a few test game in perl.
You may need to modify the perl script to fit your environment.
It work in mine.
My implementation support the standart board size but also other (big and
tiny).

One thing to remember if you support extra big board...
It could be CPU intensive to compute who is winning the game after the last
move.
I have done my best to optimise this computation but as far as I know there
are
no good algorithm to solve the longest path problem (shortest path first
does not
apply here).

But this is only once at the end of a game that we need to compute this,
so don't worry too much.

PS: Richard, could you have a look at it and tell me if you are going to
include it.
