I do not claim any rights on this collection. The games here are in the public domain.

(I collected them from many sources, mostly from the net. Martin Müller's collection of games was a good start, and Jan van Rongen had a few more recent games. Also ftp.nuri.net/Go had a lot of stuff, unfortunately mostly of low quality. Gerald Westhoff contributed lots of games from 1989-1990. Many other references contribute a handful of games. Many games have several sources, and where there were contradictions, I have attempted to decide which source was most reliable. Many minor details were corrected. The format has been made a bit more uniform. In particular, all dates are given in ISO standard form.)

Created 2000-01-01. Additions and corrections are welcome. Mail to aeb@cwi.nl.
