[bump]

For some reason Jonathan Chetwynd is having trouble sending
mail directly to gnugo-devel, so I'm forwarding this to the
list on his behalf.

Daniel,

It's deliberately unclear,

I've a few contacts possibly interested in developing a product, and  
am looking for suitable partners.

I believe that involving the GNU Go team in developing a children's  
Go tutorial will significantly enhance understanding of the game.

I'm aware of a few open source SVG games/tutorials, but none with the  
sophistication of Chesster, and that is why this game was chosen, not  
because it is a commercial product. If there is interest it would be  
as well if contributors reviewed the Chesster product which is  
published using macromedia software.

Chesster is a cartoon story with sound of a girl and a boy, and their  
adventures. They learn the rules and some strategy and tactics of  
Chess in the process.

Your email doesn't make clear whether the proposed tutorial
would be free software or a commercial product. I see the chess
tutorial Fritz and Chesster is a commercial product.

GNU Go could certainly be used in a commercial product as
long as the GNU Public License (GPL) is adhered to.

Could you clarify whether this is a commercial enterprise
or not?
