Apologies! I had just finished reading:
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/13.09/pokerbots.html
and therefore had a somewhat negative viewpoint on
Internet poker :-).
On the Tichu front they gave permission to BSW and as
I understand it that server actually charges game
companies to support their game, and so I do not think
it would be all that difficult to get permission for
us!
By the way, I did get permission from the publisher of
Gyges I have just been too swamped to writ ea
prototype. And of course there is Punkt coming along
(last in project GIPF).
Cheers,
Lyman
