Discussion of less-common openings would be good, if anyone has the time to write them up. Alternatively, an index of the openings used in the games that are on the archive could be useful. This would be a large undertaking, but it is a task that could be shared (if others would find it useful). I would be happy to do a broad classification of a dozen matches, (at the level of fortress, ranging rook, twisting rook, etc), but I have little idea about particular variations within these general categories. Let me know what you think. Ivan ivan treasury govt nz
