The CGOS protocol.

[CGLemon]

I want to rewrite the server part in my personal repository in order to simplify the code and much focus on tournament games. It means that I will remove some original features. It may include

• Fully support for original CGOS client and some other tools.
• Remove the data base (sqlite).
• Remove the complexity store path.
• Remove the global object.
• Implement fully asynchronous saving feature (Remove the [#5] to this repository).
• User can control the match game.

There are seven states in the CGOS

• protocol : get the current client version
• username: get the user name
• password: get the password
• gameover: end the game
• genmove: get the name move
• waiting: waiting for next game
• ok: do not accept any response

There are two protocol version

• v1: nothing special
• e1: use the analysis command

Any special thing should I notice?

v1: nothing special

I am considering dropping the Tcl/Tk viewer and integrating it into the web for the following reasons.

• A few Tcl/Tk programer.
• Data duplication between database and SGF files.
• Impact of viewer processing load on game player handling.
