[gnugo-devel] GoThic, gnugo-lib

[cies]

hi,

i am concidering to make a x-platform qt-based, FSF,
user/beginner/idiot-friendly standalone go playing (so no go server
connectivity)

i was wondering:

1) what is the status of gothic (the name is a bit too generic to
easiliy google on it)
1a) is there is place where i can see the code?

2) is there a (possibility for a) gnugo-lib, so apps (that i might
want to build) can get gnu-go-skill by linking to a lib? [that would
be great]
2a) would it be very hard to make

3) what would else be the most easy way to have an app connect with gnu-go? 

4) do you have general tips, interesting notes/comments for me...

can you CC me in since im not on the list :) tnx
