Go Modem Protocol

[Peter.Smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Some questions about GMP as I'm currently thinking about using it as a kind
of middleware.

(1)  Is GMP still the recommended way for two Go programs to play each
other?

(2)  The documentation file I've read (protocol) is dated 1991.  Have there
been any extensions since then?

(3)  How do you abort or end a game other than by sending NEWGAME?

(4)  Has anyone done or thought of doing a socket based implementation
rather than modem port based?

(5)  Does GMP handle Unicode?

(6)  Is GMP being actively maintained now?  

Some of these questions reflect my limited understanding of GMP.  Thanks for
any help, I have found just reading postings on this list very helpful to
date.
