...I wasn't referring to the gnu.org colors, but to the colors on the
menu bar (see attached gnugo.html). I think it is a good idea (and
standard, and thus expected by the user, and thus good) to have a
different background color for the menu.

I think you will agree that my red-brown background doesn't mix well
with the link colors :)

But we don't have captions for the GNU Go pages.

GNU Go is a free program that plays the game of Go. GNU Go has played thousands of games on the NNGS Go server. GNU Go is now also playing regularly on the Legend Go Server in Taiwan, on the WING server in Japan, and many volunteers run GNU Go clients on KGS. GNU Go 3.4 GNU Go 3.4, released July 31, 2003, is the latest stable version. It is portable and known to work well on GNU/Linux, Windows and Mac OS/X systems. You can download it here. It has established itself as the leading non-commercial go program in the recent tournaments that it has taken part in. How strong is GNU Go? This is a tough question. It results against humans vary a lot depending on how well the human knows its weaknesses, and on other factors (time settings, hardware, etc.) but most robots running GNU Go on one of the go servers achieve a rank of 8k-9k. Compared to other go programs, it may be 1-2 stones weaker than the top commercial go programs. What you can find on these web pages On the development page, you can find the latest development versions, and other information about GNU Go's development. The page on current patches might only be of interest to you once you are a GNU Go developer. The documentation is the complete texinfo documentation of GNU Go 3.4 converted to html. The free go software directory tries to list all free software related to the game of go. The link collection directs you to pages related to computer go and GNU Go in particular that we have found useful.
