Currently, a raise even a single chip is counted as a raise against the raise cap when there is a raise cap. Such a short raise does not, however, reopen betting, nor is the next raise allowed to be for the full bet amount, so I can see how such a short raise might not be counted against the raise cap, but I can't tell by looking at the BARGE Rule Book or the TDA Rules, so I've asked Dan.
Dan asked an authority and confirmed that a "short" all-in raise (i.e. one where a future player is limited to filling it up to the bet size) does not count toward the cap, but a raise that is >= half the bet size does, as does a bet that is large enough to cross that half-size threshold, so if someone raises all-in for 1/3rd of the bet size and another player goes all in for another 1/3rd, that first raise doesn't count toward the cap, but the second one does.
This is trivial to fix, but I'm done programming for the day.
